Hello

Is there a WYSIWYG text editor for editing pages, I read there was one on the way: http://ckeditor.com/demo editor, but is there one I can use in the mean time?

Thanks

You might want to start out by looking at the WYSIWYG module, which supports a large number of rich-text editors - http://drupal.org/project/wysiwyg

There are a number of WYSIWYG editors for Drupal. I myself use tinytinymce.

Contact me to contract me for D7 -> D10/11 migrations.

ckeditor is AWESOME -- you can use it with the http://drupal.org/project/wysiwyg module now and the http://drupal.org/project/ckeditor module at some point in the future (it's still in active development) if need be.

Thanks WorldFallz

And sorry, Im a real newbie, so I am going to ask a stupid question.

How do I get the CKEditor into the wysiwyg module? do I edit the module itself?

Thanks and sorry

No need to apologize-- we were all new at one point or another. ;-)

the wysiwyg module is pretty well documented-- once you install the module, it will provide you the instructions and link for installing the editor of your choice. ckeditor is only one of the options available, but imo the best by far.

it can be easily setup and works well.
This module depends on the YUI module.
You need to install the YUI module for the editor to work.

Yeah, I wasn't aware of YUI myself - just had a little try but it's 76MB once it's uncompressed (which is not so nice)!

For yui text editor to work you needn't install( copy the files to your server) YUI framework on your server.
In yui text editor module settings point to YUI framework address in yahoo server.
It will do.
