Php wysiwyg html for opera

Post by Shendemiar »

I know several compatible with IE, but does anyone happen to know one that works perfect with Opera? (just opera will do)

Doesnt have to be that coplex, just simple formations will do.

I was editing some news for a website the other day and a WYSIWYG editor popped up. This is quite rare in Opera and the system it uses is TinyMCE. Haven't tested it too much, but it seems like a nice little editor.

TinyMCE is about the best one you can use as it supports most browsers including Opera 9. Actually TinyMCE supported Opera 9 when Opera 9 was still in preview stages almost a year ago.

Avoid FCKeditor. Those people have actively avoided any support for Opera 9. They basically do not want to offer any support for that browser even after many people have asked for it.

I finally convinced a friend of my to switch from FCKeditor to TinyMCE in his CMS package because I use Opera 9 all of the time and couldn't use the FCKeditor. He says TinyMCE is far better and easier to configure than FCKeditor. He has even been able to do some things with TinyMCE that were impossible with FCKeditor.

FCKeditor seems to get all of the notice but TinyMCE is by far the better of the two.

One thing that TinyMCE lacks is a file manager/browser to easily upload images and such. The reason for this is because they SELL a file manager plugin. :)

You can download TinyFCK which is the latest version of TinyMCE with the FCKeditor file browser converted to a TinyMCE plugin. It works like a charm.
