For experimenting with wysiwyg editing, I have put an extension (a true extension, no patch of the mediawiki code required) on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/FCKeditor which allows semi-wysiwig editing of wiki pages using the famous FCKeditor. Markus

Many thanks for your work on this. I am very keen to use a WYSIWYG extension on my MediaWiki installation. I've tested the extension as it stands on 1.6.5, and the installation procedure worked fine. Testing the __use_editor__ method on our Sandbox, I did have some problems with FCKeditor not correctly saving a relatively complex page. I will read up on any current limitations for FCKeditor and try again later to see whether it was my configuration or method that was at fault. -- rik

Markus, Aside from being a new MW admin/user who will be trying this out (once some other important stuff is done :-) ), there are a few aspects of FCKedit internals I've always been curious about, but never been able to find answers for in the time I've been able to look. Would you mind a couple of questions? They'll be quick--they're simple for people who would know the answers, unlike me :-) Thanks, Ken McDonald Familie Arndt wrote:

I implemented the FCK extension, and I have a question. I figured out how to edit the styles that the FCK editor uses for the style drop down, but how do I get it to create wikicode styles. For example, in WikiCode you surround a section heading with ==, and then it is also included in the Table of Contents. Even including the == through the FCK editor didn't achieve the desired effect. Ideally I would like the style drop down to say Header 1, 2, 3, and then show in the editor with the font big and bold, but then when you save it have it get translated into the ==,===, or ===. Suggestions? Is this even possible? Thanks in advance! -Jim

If someone want to point me towards a resource I may have missed on this I will be happy to research it more. I've looked around quite a bit and I am not having much success with it. Any help would be great! Thanks again! On 5/24/06, Jim McKeeth <jim(a)mckeeth.org> wrote:
