Why not dump the existing html editors and use this one instead, it's great!

No, I suggested to get rid of the other ones :-) This one is better than the other ones. Expecially the version with all features on is great. Very easy to edit details of new and existing content, for example pictures and links.

Since it's a "commercial" application, it most likely cannot be distributed in a bundle with phpWCMS as a GPL-licensed application. Individuals may contact author through "support form" to inquire about development of a "support pack" :roll:

I do not see what make this one better? You still need IE5,5+ and it do not have functions that spaw/FCKeditor didn´t have....

Well, personally I get errors when using FCKeditor, and Spaw is just plan awkward to use. Heavy to load and it is not user friendly. For example when creating a link you cannot give it a target. And when you want to edit the properties of a link or an image, you have to go to the HTML code and do it manually.

There ~appears~ to be a patch for this. I have not checked it out, though:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=551774
Hyperlink with targets

There are several other "patches" (in addition to other tips in the forum discussion":

Yes I would be happy to integrate only 1 WYSIWYG editor. At the moment I prefer the use of HTMLarea - seems to be the best working. The new Beta of FCKeditor looks great - but seems to be a very eraly beta - so I will not update FCKeditor until it is finished.

I'm thinking about removing SPAW - it has too many problems.

Hi Oliver,
if you change the editors, please be sure that Mac OS 9 will be supported with Netscape 7.02 or Mozilla 1.2.1 (the last versions of this browsers).

Thanks
