| WYSIWYG Forum Post Editor Enabled
I have enabled the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) forum post editor. It is supported by current versions of Internet Explorer and Firefox. The best part is the WYSIWYG editor does not suffer the redirect problems that have plagued some members when using the current enhanced editor. The only major interface difference is that the WYSIWYG works similar to a word processor in that you first highlight the text to be formatted, then click the button according to what format feature you want to use for the highlighted text.
For now, the WYSIWYG editor is a selectable option from the options panel of the UserCP. If you want to enable this feature, click here: http://www.techimo.com/forum/profile.php?do=editoptions
Scroll to the bottom of the linked page, and then select the editor you want to use. Note that Opera (and most other alternative browsers) do not support the WYSIWYG editor due to DOM-related rendering support issues. If you set the WYSIWYG option, then load the post editor in Opera, you will still receive the old enhanced editor.
Best Regards,
Robert Richmond

I do not know what is up with Bingo's problem, as the formatting features work fine for me with Firefox 1.5.0.1. Bingo, do you have JS disabled by any chance?
Ming, I too have noted the smilie problem with Firefox. It is is related to a coding issue. I have already located the fix and forwarded the info so Scott can apply the required code edit. Hopefully it will be resolved over the weekend.

Works fine for me in FF 1.0.7 and 1.5.0.1.
Just that it won't let me scroll past smilie in the WYSIWYG editor. That's a bit too WYSIWYG, IMO.
Cheers
Mick
