Can anyone recommend a good WYSIWYG editor that I can use on my website? I need one that will allow a user to browse his computer for a image and upload it. It should also make a thumbnail of the image to display on the front side and be linked to the larger image.
Is this asking too much? I've tried Tinymce but you can't upload a picture using theirs. I can't even get Fckeditor to display on my website.
I can get Openwysiwyg to work, and I can upload a picture but it's not quite right. You have to manually link to the larger image and the thumbnail it generates is miserably tiny - about the size of a desktop icon.
I think this program has good potential but it needs a little tweaking to really make it shine. Unfortunately, that's beyond my skill level at the moment. It has way fewer files than the Tiny and Fckeditor and I like that. And I think I might be able to eliminate some of the features on the toolbar.

This can be achieved by an input file element:
It should also make a thumbnail of the image to display on the front side and be linked to the larger image.
This will require some server-side code for the actual uploading. You may not get this exact functionality, but if you can get something close (check the demos), you can adapt it to display in this manner. Alternatively, add the whole upload part yourself.
I would actually prefer to just use a standard textarea and have some way for the user to include an image in the content. I made a photo gallery in php, but this is different.
Lets say I was typing this message and I wanted to include a image right HERE, and have it show up right there when viewed from the front side. A WYSIWYG editor can do that (well is suppose to be able to do that) but I can't do that with just a standard form textarea.
Yes I can include a image upload file in the form, but I wouldn't know how to display the image on the front side where the author meant for it to be displayed within his article.
I would rather do this with php instead of javascript also.

TinyMCE is a widely used WYSIWYG editor.
Edit: nevermind.
Edit2: I'm sure there are plugins for TinyMCE that allow for file uploads (like wordpress's editor).
Edit3: It does. Check out the toolbar (top one), there is an icon of an image to upload images.
I tried Tinymce, but it gave me problems. It may be something to do with FireFox.

I can say that I've used FckEditor in an intranet application. It worked fine on Firefox and IE and it does exactly what you require. What problems were you having setting it up?

Hi
I'm looking for a wysiwyg XSTL editor, that actually is wysiwyg. So far
every product I have tried out seems to have the idea that wysiwyg is just
showing the result of an XML - XSL trans-formation.
What I'm looking for is an editor that lets me design how I want the result
to look, based on a XML file, and automatically generates the XSL needed to
obtain the result.
Does such a product exist?

Hi Folks.
I would like to find a control or code for use with an app I am
writing. We need to load a XML document. This XML document has a DTD
and we want to allow a user to edit the plain text in the editor. Then
the changes should be saved back to the xml file.
The idea is very much akin to the HTML Editors which use WYSIWIG.
However, we need to be able to extend the functionality of these
editors to support functionality that we will...

I'm using a WYSIWYG editor called TinyMCE. When I edit some text and then
save it back to my SQL server using a SQLCommand, all HTML characters are
changed to HTML code, i.e. >strong< instead of <strong> and so on. Is
this a problem with the editor or something else? Does .Net convert it? I
had to disable page validate request because of the tags, is there more?
Thanks,

For years I have been using a HTML editor (HomeSite 3) to produce crude web
