How can i use TinyMCE in CI

[eluser]Chris Newton[/eluser]
What's so hard about incorporating TinyMCE in CI? CI basically just spits out web pages, and TinyMCE is SUPER easy to put in a web page. You just have to add the TinyMCE to your site, say in 'scripts/tinymce' folder. Then add a link to the file in the header of your web page, and set up the TinyMCE init (if you have special wants needs)

Below I've put my configuration for TinyMCE. (take the + sign out of the script tags to get it to work... all this stuff goes in the HTML head.

Code:

<scri+pt src="&lt;?=base_url()?&gt;scripts/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js" type="text/javascript"></scri+pt>
<scri+pt language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
        tinyMCE.init({
            theme : "advanced",
            mode : "textareas",
            plugins : "imagemanager,filemanager,insertdatetime,preview,emotions,visualchars,nonbreaking",
            theme_advanced_buttons1_add: 'insertimage,insertfile',
            theme_advanced_buttons2_add: 'separator,forecolor,backcolor',
            theme_advanced_buttons3_add: 'emotions,insertdate,inserttime,preview,visualchars,nonbreaking',
            theme_advanced_disable: "styleselect,formatselect,removeformat",
            plugin_insertdate_dateFormat : "%Y-%m-%d",
            plugin_insertdate_timeFormat : "%H:%M:%S",
            theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
            theme_advanced_resize_horizontal : false,
            theme_advanced_resizing : true,
            apply_source_formatting : true,
            spellchecker_languages : "+English=en",
            extended_valid_elements :"img[src|border=0|alt|title|width|height|align|name],"
            +"a[href|target|name|title],"
            +"p,"
            +"i,"
            +"b,"
            +"br,"
            +"em",
            invalid_elements: "table,span,tr,td,tbody,font"

        });
        
    </scri+pt>

Your init may vary based on the features you want. I didn't want my clients to screw anything up by pasting in word html, so I made things like table tags & span tags invalid and removed formatting from p tags, etc. I also use imagemanager & filemanager (which I included in the plugins list at the top.
