Hi there

Which would you reagrd as the best WYSIWIG to use. There are quite a few out there. I want one that does the job but also looks good.

I do not want to have to pay for it
its got to be flexible enough to allow me to remove icons i dont want the end user to use
Add my styles to (CSS)
the view within the window should show styled tags and not the default h1,h2 sizing.

Is that do-able or am i asking to much here

Moved to Design & Development Software

WYSIWYG shouldn't be used at all!

Out of the bunch Dreamweaver is probable the only one that generates code that's not as disgusting as the others. But it's not free.

Stick to hand-coding.

Hi

Sorry, didnt get my question across properly.

I am a developer and the WYSIWIG will be implemented in the admin/secure side of the website. Its to allow the user to enter some content to update a page/pages AND also give them some limited formatting ability.

Then that is a totally different question

Look into TinyMCE

Moving back to PHP forum.

CMS?

Darn you karinnes, too fast, again

[shakes fist and hobbkes slowly back to the old solw pc]

No ... he's asking for embedded editors ... you know how when you create a thread on the forum and you have all these bold, italics, etc... buttons? That's what he's looking to implement on his site.

I think ....

Hi Karinne

Thats exactly what I am looking for.

Do you have experience with Tiny MCE.

Is it easy to implement?

karinne · #8 Oct 10th, 2007, 13:09

I haven't tried it yet. I will be implementing it in my new dashboard app I'm creating tho ... just haven't gotten around to that part yet.

pas2gether · #9 Oct 10th, 2007, 13:12

Has anybody any experience of TinyMCE

I have used TinyMCE but I much prefer FCKEditor - it seems to be lighter, and also can be implemnted by most languages.

(it's 2 n's

)

Not a CMS per say ... just and better admin panel for my clients. I custom build CMS's depending on my clients' needs and this editor thing is a new must-have

1840dsgn · #12 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:38

ah i see, yea im going to do the same with the custom building CMS's. Any chance when your done I can have a look at it?

karinne · #13 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:42

We'll see

1840dsgn · #14 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:45

lol! ok then

alexgeek · #15 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:47

I might incorporate one into my blog entry form.
Do they produce valid code?

1840dsgn · #16 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:49

fck editor does. I use it for my site, its awesome. Did you ever play on the CMS I made? I posted it up in here.

alexgeek · #17 Oct 10th, 2007, 17:53

Yes I did, but I don't think I saw that.
Is the CMS demo still up? Link me?

1840dsgn · #18 Oct 10th, 2007, 18:02

alexgeek · #19 Oct 10th, 2007, 18:25

1840dsgn · #20 Oct 12th, 2007, 01:21
