Hi guys, a little question here: can I use the Free Rich Text Editor (No. 6) which, as the above mentioned text mentions, is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 General License, for integration in my webdesignscript that I want to sell? I.E. I want to sell my webdesignscript (in development) which will hopefully include the FRTE-script, BUT may I do this according to the CCA 2.5 General License ? What should I mention in my own script when I use the FRTE-script? Hope to get some answers, thanx!

Beware of YUI’s Rich Text Editor: it does not work in Safari. And since YUI2 is now dead in favor of YUI3, beware of YUI 3′s Rich Text Editor because it isn’t one. Not yet anyway, it’s just a base component with no GUI, making it useless at this point.

Google Translate of javi rom’s comment above:

the tinyCME have problems and no place left to insert embedded videos and presentations from the front end, if given the publisher or editor privileges to a user.
anyone know how to fix this problem?. From the back end if you fail to insert the embevido, but if publishers really want to put the tiny CME has many problems

el tinyCME tiene problemas y no deja insertar embebidos para colocar videos y presentaciones desde el front end, si se le da privilegios de publicador o editor a un usuario.
alguien sabe como se soluciona ese problema?. Desde el back end si deja insertar el embevido, pero si realmente se quieren colocar publicadores, el tiny CME tiene muchos problemas

Users want their WYSYWYG to work like outlook. and Tiny MCE has too many gotchas. Must use X browser. Hit enter and shift at the same time. Dont copy and paste unless using X browser and using your Left hand. close your eyes and cross your fingers.

TinyMCE gave me so many headaches when trying to integrate this for a customer.
It did not copy and paste with consistent behaviour.
Making the line breaks work the way the user thought it would – whether they hit ENTER or they copy and pasted it from another source was another nightmare.
I lost so many project hours trying to make this work in a reliable way.
Make the font match from what you pasted, configure the style to have fonts that match usual RTE font sizes for usual users (10pt.. WTF is Size 2?)

Geeks keep forgetting KISS – keep it simple, stupid.

There is so much user support and forum, because everyone has the same problems. its like a mess of something that probably started simple and nice, and is now a complicated mess.. like enterprise software..
