I've just shown these rich-text editors to our users and they are ecstatic.
Thanks to everybody who responded - amazing where a simple question will
lead.

|
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Just want to point out a few things
On the fckeditor.net site there is just the new beta 2.0 version (that
already include the JSP tag lib)
For a production environment I suggest the use of the 1.6 stable version
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=75348&package_id=7
5845&release_id=236998
It already include a tag lib version, too...
lib support
The one avalible on my site was a pre-release version of the JSP tag.
