Has any one tried out the spaw editor v2
I have been trying to implement this in a textarea to up date a database for a few hours now with no success
the documentation and forums are of little help.
If someone has managed i would like to hear from you.
thanks.

Any reason why you do not want to use the ones that currently work with CCS?? (FCKeditor, HTMLArea and TinyMCE)

FCKeditor is fine but have a look for WysiwygPro (http://www.wysiwygpro.com/). Especially Version 3 is very easy to implement in your apps. He's worth every penny!

But could you let us know what WysiwygPro does that FCKeditor does not?

WysiwygPro has a much better file manager and handling.

Thanks for the replys I thought this thread was dead.
my interest in the spaw editor is its simplicity.
we often forget as developers that the users of our applications have little or no html knowledge,
while FCKeditor,TinyMCE and WysiwygPro are great editors they are a little OOT for some of my clients,
if our users knew how to use sophisticated Wysiwyg editors they would not need us to start with.
I have a CMS which is evolving all the time and for some time I have used HTMLAREA which I like but as it is no longer supported I am Now looking for an alternative.
My sites format is controlled by css so what I need is
Basic text formatting
easy method of up loading images
some means of cleaning MS Office rubbish
A spell checker and little else.
Spaw looks like a good candidate, currently I am testing Xinha I can easily make a scaled down version
unfortunately the current stable version is still a little buggy.
any ways if any one would like a look at my CMS send me an email address on the PM and I will give you an address of a demo.
Mick

----------------------------------
FCKeditor is quite "dummydownable". You have full control over what
toolbars/buttons are displayed. We used Wysiwyg Pro for awhile before
CCS integrated FCKeditor, and wowe nellie did things become a whole lot
easier!

Sense I posted "Has any one tried out the spaw editor v2"
I have played around with a few editors, and a scaled down version of FCK or Xinha might suit the bill , maybe a sticky on editors and there configuration in CCS could come in use full here.
