Life on and off the Rails

 

This fixes a couple of bugs and upgrades to version 2.3.1 of FCKeditor. The are a couple of changes to the way things work:

1) No controller, helper or view copied to the Rails app directory (you need to delete these if upgrading)

2) The editor files can now be included using
<%= javascript_include_tag :fckeditor %>

No spell check yet, and there are some issues with the file upload refreshing the resource browser after completion. Also there are no progress indicators for the ajax requests which can leave you wondering what (if anything) is going on.

Once things are all functional and a little stable I will combine the various posts here into a more comprehensive tutorial on how to use the plugin.

Install

The best way to install the plugin is to run the following from the root of your Rails app:

ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/fckeditorp/trunk/fckeditor

There is also a tar available at RubyForge, if you wan to install from that just untar it in the vendor/plugins directory and then run

rake fckeditor:install

from the root of your Rails app.
