This is a WYSIWG editor. There is already a valid mod for phpbb2, and I have proposed it to MG, but Luca is not agree with this integration... if you want to try this is the link of the mod:

http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=512440

DEMO: http://www.ecardmax.com/phpbb_2022/index.php

Anyway I'm agree with you. IMHO is a valid and useful tool.

Wow, nice looking editor Danilo... I think that would be a nice add-on. The general features shouldn't be too hard to do, the javascript sends data to the necessary global variables, e.g. $_POST, which is how any form data is accessed. The only problem is making the "emotions" bbcodes compatible... I can't see anything on their site for handling that API.

Theres a nice example here on straight php integration:

http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:PHP_Example

Thanks for bringing it up, I think its good to see alternative mods like this - and as webmasters/developers, if we are worth such titles, then we should ultimately consider the end user experience, and anything that provides user input should be made as "comfortable" to use as possible. I think in the future we will see a lot more input methods like this becoming standard, particularly as over the last couple of years javascript has become more or less standardised across browser platforms, especially as more people start to adopt online MS office-style products (e.g. ThinkFree Office) - AJAX is becoming the norm... and what better step than to integrate an office style interface with a forum...

I think it shold be easier to try to integrate what is already phpbb-ready. And also in this mod

http://www.ecardmax.com/phpbb_2022/posting.php?mode=newtopic&f=1

there is a switch to enable or not the rich editor, with the way to continue to use BBcodes.

Well... one man's meat is another man's poison... when I get some spare time I'm still going to play with TinyMCE. Variety is the spice of life

I don't like WYSIWYG editors at all... I use a text editor for HTML as well... he he he... I like to have full control over what I write.

Anyway, I agree on the fact that WYSIWYG could be useful for non expert users... or people who like "ready to go" things... so if you achieve any acceptable result I guess it would be a really popular customization.

Good luck!

Yes I prefer text editing like you MG, but it is the end user that we serve, a?

Anyway check out the file/image manager plugins that go with TinyMCE:

http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/plugins.php

Idea of integrating forum with all these Tiny components is quite appalling appealing, especially for an online workspace... just as long as no gaping security holes!

Yes, I agree.

Let's see if anyone will find the time to have a try integrating this.

Unfortunatly I have no slots now...
