Question

Formatting text

I have a form with a cftextarea. The textarea feeds the text into a database table field. A separate cfm page displays the text as a result of a query. To insert the formatting tags into the text before it is sent to the database I am currently using TinyMCE. Is it now possible to dispense with TinyMCE and use cf attributes in the cftextarea?

cf8 has a new richtext='yes' attribute you can add to cftextarea tags.
it then uses FCKEditor to turn the textarea into a wysiwyg editor -
similar to TinyMCE, but different... you still need to configure
FCKEditor to your liking and needs. so if you are familiar with TinyMCE
and know how to configure and use it, you may want to stick with i
instead of learning FCKEditor... I find that I can configure a lot more
and better to suite my needs in TinyMCE... but then I have not played
with FCKEditor that much yet...
