The WYSIWYG editor is a feature of the browser, not the back-end. They are all written in Javascript and make heavy use of built in browser objects to handle the HTML editing. The backend can be anything for most of these editors, because you're essentially doing HTML editing in a textarea (not really, but essentially).. so when you click "Save" you're just submitting a form with a bunch of HTML code being sent as the value of one of your form fields. Some editors include more CF integration for the instantiation of the editor object itself, but that's just fancy ways to write the javascript. FCKeditor has a CFC interface that you'd find very friendly. But it's only purpose is to create the editor object on the page itself, not really anything else. Many of the editors have some CF integration for browing for images and other files as well. I think TinyMCE does this, and so does FCKeditor. In either case - and in some others probably too - you can also integrate your own file management piece, written in Coldfusion, or use a third party file management piece, like the open source CFFM project (which I wrote). It integrates nicely into both TinyMCE and CFFM and offers quite a bit more functionality than the included file managers. Personally, I use FCKeditor in all of my work that requires an HTML editor. www.fckeditor.net www.opensourcecf.com/cffm Rick -- > I'm not certified, but I have been told that I'm certifiable... > Visit http://www.opensourcecf.com today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268563 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
