What's the best WYSIWYG Editor for use with jQuery? [closed]?

Well there is actually a jquery plugin : https://github. Com/akzhan/jwysiwyg It is a bare-bones framework implementation though, exactly why I like it. You can extend it exactly to your needs.

You might need something more robust, but I personally would recommend and do use jwysiwyg, it is easy to understand and extremely lightweight compared to tinymce or fckeditor.

3 We just moved from TinyMCE to jwysiwyg for our public-facing editing largely because the voerhead for TinyMCE is so large. We still use TinyMCE in the back-end for admins, but for more basic requirements jwysiwyg is really good. – Toby Hede Jul 17 '09 at 2:07 It doesn't work well with Internet Explorer without tweaking.Code.google.Com/p/jwysiwyg/issues/detail?

Wow no one has mentioned Aloha Editor aloha-editor.com.

1 Didn't see any official list of browsers on the site and it doesn't seem to degrade well. I guess that is to be assumed with HTML 5, but limits its usefulness... One of the demo pages throws a script error in IE 6 (not a big deal), hard crashes IE 7 (using IE Tester - my-debugbar. Com/wiki/IETester/HomePage) and behaves erratically in IE 8 (some formatting works, some doesn't, toolbar buttons don't always perform the right action).

Looks great in Chrome though... – Tim Medora Dec 16 '10 at 6:06 Hrmm. It's aim is for IE6+ compatibility (as surprisingly, IE was actually the first to implement the HTML5 contenteditable tag). I'll forward this onto the team :-) Thanks for the feedback!

MarkItUp is a semi-WYSIWYG editor written with JQuery. It lets users enter simplified markup schemes such as textile, markdown or even plain HTML. The user can then hit a preview button to have the server render out a preview.It is very similar to the stack overflow text box, in fact.

I actually prefer this method as it tends to yield cleaner markup than standard rich text editors, but it is still simple enough for the average user to understand.

Wow, this one isn't really a wysiwyg editor, but it looks really interesting! – Chris Pietschmann Jul 17 '09 at 1:28.

JHtmlArea - WYSIWYG HTML Editor for jQuery A simple, light weight, extensible WYSIWYG HTML Editor built on top of jQuery. This component allows you to easily display a WYSIWYG HTML Editor in place of any TextArea DOM Elements on the page. The minified script alone is 7kb, and with css and image files it's a total of 15kb.

This project also include Visual Studio JavaScript Intellisense support.

1 This doesn't seem to output xhtml compliant code (Inserting of images) Also it doesn't appear to work in IE8 on my machine , works fine in firefox though. I like it though very good and simple. I found a lot of other editors hard to customise.SA – Andi Jul 22 '09 at 9:17 1 Why don't you upgrade instead of using a nearly 10 year old browser that is completely packed full of security vulnerabilities?

You have plenty to pick from: IE8, Firefox 3.5, Safari or Chrome. – Chris Pietschmann Jan 8 '10 at 20:36 4 Well, I'm sure mr. msony is worried about the browser his end users are using, not his own browser. Still, I've dropped supporting IE6 users myself.

You might still get a few stragglers using IE6, but not enough to warrant the enormous cost of engineering for IE6. – Adam Nofsinger Jan 25 '10 at 22:57 4 People use IE6 as long as it is supported (by webdevs). The longer you guys continue supporting it, the longer it will stay alive.

Please do yourself a favor and drop the support. – jholster May 15 '10 at 18:56 2 Awesome project, but where is the documentation? Reading through source code to find hard-coded values and names is not fun.

CLEditor is an open source jQuery plugin which provides a lightweight, full featured, cross browser, extensible, WYSIWYG HTML editor which can be easily added into any web site. 9 KB minified (with pictures) premiumsoftware.net/cleditor.

CKEditor is now bringing native support for jQuery: ckeditor.com/blog/CKEditor_for_jQuery The jQuery community will certainly enjoy it!

Thanks, Fred! – Josh Stodola Jan 19 '10 at 17:21 I just tried using the jQuery adapter and it didn't want to save properly, in that it didn't update the textareas before posting the form. – Daniel Huckstep Sep 2 '10 at 20:25 So far so good.

:) – Kenny Cason Apr 27 at 2:48.

We used Nicedit in 2 projects now, if we find anything better we will switch, but untill now we are satisfied with the results of this Nicedit. Its Lightweight and easy to implement.

This one doesn't use jQuery. – user133145 Jul 20 '09 at 23:32 1 looks good though, like the fact they have provided code to get you started instantly, would be useful for anyone with limited knowledge – Andi Jul 22 '09 at 9:34 Handy feature with the integrated image upload too :) – Andi Jul 22 '09 at 9:42 This one is great! Thanks Sander.

There is new but already powerful WYSIWYG written purely in jQuery and UI - elRTE.

Compatible with every major browser. I like it – Stanislav Palatnik Jul 1 at 16:37.

There is Damn Small Rich Text Editor which aims to have the smallest footprint possible : avidansoft.com/_en/scripts And there is also uEditor, originally based on widgEditor but rewritten for jQuery and considerably modified since : upian.com/upiansource/ueditor/en And I forgot WYMeditor, a web-based WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean) XHTML editor : http://www.wymeditor.org.

It is the same url as the one for the second link, the uEditor one. – Sander Jul 20 '09 at 7:53 Yes. I made the correction.

– Michel Jul 20 '09 at 9:13 eh lol, you turned them around now :P the uEditor link goes to avidansoft and the avidansoft link goes to the uEditor site :D – Sander Jul 20 '09 at 12:20 I just fixed the links – Chris Pietschmann Jul 20 '09 at 23:35 @Chris Pietschmann : merci – Michel Jul 20 '097 at 9:02.

I tried jwysiwyget, and I had diffculties to make it work with 2 instances on the same page. I discovered CLedit wich is jquery based, and I really like the interface configuration (Ability to easily define color code available, and styles) witouth having to go deep in the plugin's code. I reckon it.

I've used FCKeditor in conjunction with a jquery plugin It did the trick for me, as I've used FCKeditor for ages. It's (the plugin) a bit tricky to get used to in complex situations, so let me know if you give it a go. FCKeditor also has a new editor in the works called CKeditor that sounds promising.

About jwysiwyg: The location of the projects seems to have changed from google code to github: akzhan.github.com/jwysiwyg/. Ts projects offers clean code and very configurable wysiwyg. Perfect for projects using DVCS integration (via git).

Last commit was done one weeks ago.

HTML box is a good one which works based on jQuery. It has got most of the formatting toolbar and its only 14 KB size htmlbox.remiya.com/ htmlbox.remiya.com/cms/download.

Links mentioned here are not working anymore. See remiya. Com/htmlbox for the website.

Have you tried this one called wmd: wmd-editor.com/demo.

This looks like a good markdown editor; in fact it's the one that SO uses. However, I am looking for a WYSIWYG editor that allows non-"HTML Savvy" users to edit pages similarly to editing Word documents. – Chris Pietschmann Jul 17 '09 at 1:30.

Check out aloha-editor.org - pjure wysiwyg html5 editor - works fine with jquery and makes use of the html5 contenteditable field.

Duplicate. Aloha has already been mentioned. Perhaps a comment on that answer would be better :) – balupton Mar 22 at 4:44.

We used elRTE is an open-source jQuery, jQuery UI based editor.

Check out Stiqr.com. They've created jQuery WYSIWYG web editor. All edits are done visually and there is no code involved.

All you do is upload images and add shapes using their user-interface. It is pretty easy to use and even fun :).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
