Chris,

Here is a URL with some of the compatibility information about TinyMCE:

http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/tinymce/docs/compatiblity_chart.html

I have done 90% of my work on Firefox/MacOS10.4, with some Firefox/Linux and Safari/MacOS10.4 testing as well  Safari doesn't work great, but I have heard some things about Safari's JavaScript interpreter that point to Safari as the source of the problem.

TinyMCE has a lot of fancy plugins - in fact, you can make it work pretty much like M$ Word if you configure it correctly.  I believe the plugins that are "MSIE only" are some of the "fluff" plugins (like the "iespell" spell checker, the graphics object z-layering, etc.).  All of the more "normal" HTML-based formatting plugins (styles, fonts, colors, links, images, etc.) have worked fine on Firefox.

 What happened when you tried to use Opera with their example page?

I went to the TinyMCE site to check out the examples. It didn't seem to
load in my Opera on both Linux and Windows at all.

In addition i found this on the site:

"This page shows all available plugins that are included in the TinyMCE
distribution. Some of these plugins will only be visible on MSIE due to
the lack of some support in FF. For more details on the various options on
TinyMCE check the manual or for more third party plugins check the plugin
section."

I am just thinking if this plugin is extensible enough to deply with RC?
IMHO everything should work in Opera, MSIE and Firefox without exceptions
(or at least without major exceptions).

Am I missing something here? I really would like to see the WYSIWYG work
in Opera.
