I tried it not too long ago and still don't like the way it works or some of the code it produces. But my gripes mostly have to do with the way tinymce was written and how bloated it is in a way. However, if I would have to choose between TinyMCE or FCKEditor, I would still prefer TinyMCE. However, I found out about CKEditor a couple of weeks ago (http://ckeditor.com/demo), which is a totally rewritten FCKEditor and seems to tackle all the problems I have with the previously mentioned libraries. > And there is a lot of tutorials on how to do file upload using tinyMCE > with PHP, which is probably why people were refering to it... > > I am also trying to get file upload working and file browsing, and > will > write some feedback when i get those working. Converting PHP code to Ruby/Rails code shouldn't be all too hard if the API is written in a consistent way and (that's quite a while back though) TinyMCE was really flawed there when I tried to get it working properly. Good luck though, great to see people trying to get Rails and TinyMCE working together.
