I've twiddled the setting to see if anything will enable the popup option to work but after saving it's always reverted to not use the popup window. Why?

Also, most other wysiwyg editors and even the basic plain html editing area offer the ability to resize the editable window. But with fckeditor, it's a static box, very small and a pain to work with. This is a bug I guess?

I think it must be doable to get a similar resize mechanism on the FCKeditor iframe. I'll look into it later.

That would be great re the resizing capability. Are you able to get the popup option to work?

I think that one is fixed as well. Are you sure the option is not saved because of an error?

You're right; it does work; the first time around I think I misinterpreted the warnings, so I hadn't properly cleared out the prev settings that conflict with fckeditor as popup. It's a lot more workable as a popup window, since the default html window size is so tiny. Thanks!

I ran into this issue as well and as a workaround until this feature is added I am advising my users to use fullscreen mode. You can enter fullscreen using ctrl+alt+enter or you can add the 'FitWindow' button to your toolbar.

Hope this helps.

I have investigated this and it appears to be quite difficult without support from the FCKeditor editor. Resizing is a built in feature of CKeditor and this feature will thus automatically be implemented when there is support for CKeditor.
