I am running Drupal 5.x and have installed FCKeditor, which seems to be running alright (though a bit too slow for my taste).

My question is about the language interface. I know that FCKeditor automatically detects the language being used on a site and responds by using that language for its interface. I would prefer to turn off the auto-detect (partly because I will have a multi-lingual site and expect that could cause problems), to leave English as the default language and to provide users with a drop-down, language interface selection menu.

I'm sure it's possible, 'cause they do it at the FCKeditor demo site:

http://www.fckeditor.net/demo

My first question: Does anyone know how to do this?

My second question: Is it possible to configure FCKeditor to give users the option of using it or not?

At the moment that is not possible out of the box, but you may edit the fckeditor.config.js to change the settings you need.

Thanks. Does anyone have any tips on accomplishing this? I have looked at the FCKeditor site for plug-ins and configuration suggestions, but don't find anything remotely like what I want to do. Anyone know of instructions for editing fckeditor.config.js geared toward the newbie? Or do you know of another editor that might allow for manual language selection?

Thank you.

Geared towards a newbie will be hard, because it's an advanced feature by definition. You will need to know javascript at the very least.

Thanks. I will put this on my "to do once I have learned a bit more" list. It's getting to be a long list, but thankfully I have enough to keep me busy still on my "to do with the knowledge I have right now" list. ;-)
