FCKEditor Plugin for Rails

Aug 072006

Following on from my experiences with FCKEditor and Rails, I decided to wrap the whole thing up as a plugin. This can be downloaded here or installed using the plugin install command, see this post

It basically combines and extends the following pieces of work:

The end result is the editor with a working resource manager and a set of helpers that allow use with both AJAX and basic HTML forms.

We (Cominded) have been looking at various rich text editors to play with and I went through a few before eventually deciding that FCKEditor was worth a more detailed look (Others included TinyMCE which is available as a Rails plugin, but isn’t really upto FCK’s standards. It did have the advantage of being under the Creative Commons license, but as we are creating services this ended up not being the deciding factor).
