163249 - Creatig WYSIWYG Editor for Browser

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 97284

(Core :: DOM: Editor, enhancement)

Description

[Roland Sippel]

At this time it is not possible to use Mozilla for ANY Content Managementsystem
which use a web-based WYSIWYG Editor. ALL CMS i know only support Internet
Explorer for use.
You also can not develop an WYSIWYG Editor for Mozilla with JavaScript or DHTML
because there is no Engine which you use for this.

- See upper URL with Mozi and wiht IE.

- See: http://www.typo3.com (only for IE - see WYSIWYG jpg attach)

Hope i can use Mozi in future on a webbased Content Managementsystem.

Who says that it isnt possible to develop a WYSIWYG editor for Mozilla with
DHTML?Go to http://www.xopus.org/index.jsp?menu=mozce,you can edit it
(contenteditable) and with Ctrl+B/Ctrl+I you can make even make the selected
text bold/italic (WYSIWYG).

Very cool - try to do this with a form and textarea box ?
In a Content Managementsystem the Edit Text are in a textarea !!
(see my attach)

You try the online demo with mozi:

Bosko:
That editor is far from having all the possibilities that IE has.

Roland:
Your comment in 97284 wasn't really needed. No one has said that it won't be
added it's just a matter of time/resources.
