I got an idea to integrate a WYSIWYG editor (which I will implement tomorrow) and from what I can tell, there are two that are currently in used most widely.
TinyMCE FCKeditor
Any preference in terms of setup, ease of use and features? I was about to use TinyMCE, but FCKeditors appears to have file upload built in (whereas you have to buy it separately for TinyMCE).
Of course, if there is a better editor, I would be interested.

I am quite happy with TinyMCE and there is a Rails plugin that simplifies the usage. If you use ActiveScaffold, it has a bridge that you can use and have TinyMCE editing in practicly no time. The file upload is AFAIK supported by a plugin fork

but i have not tested it nor read the docs so can't tell you if it will really help you.
good luck with your choice!

CKEditor is the successor of FCKEditor (http://ckeditor.com/). It has better features, performance and setup compared to their older brothers imo (especially if you are working with Ajax) and the code is cleaner.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for sharing. I was also looking for a solution myself, and found CKEditor pretty straightforward and easy to setup.
Thanks!!!
Fidel.
