Hi, Is there a plugin or some kind of interface for WYMeditor (http:// [Elad on Rails: WYMeditor - Standards driven WYSIWYG editor](http://pandejo.blogspot.com/2007/09/wymeditor-standards-driven-wysiwyg.html)) like there is for TinyMce? ---

Hi Elad, Benny posted this at my blog entry about using the Textile Editor Helper and acts\_as\_textiled together. [[http://notepad.onghu.com/2007/3/28/using-textile-editor-plugin-and-acts\_as\_textiled](http://notepad.onghu.com/2007/3/28/using-textile-editor-plugin-and-acts_as_textiled)] [http://dev.wymeditor.org/wiki/index.php/Docs/WymOnRails](http://dev.wymeditor.org/wiki/index.php/Docs/WymOnRails) Not sure if this helps you - I haven’t had a look at it in any detail. Cheers, Mohit. 9/10/2007 | 11:24 PM. ---

No, TinyMce is not good enough. i am looking for the WYM for a reason. i’ll just have to write it down myself since i don’t want to use textile. On Sep 10, 10:20 pm, “alexey.Creopolis” [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) ---

I just released WEH, should be just what you need Elad. I updated the WymOnRails page on the wym wiki, and blogged about it here; [http://www.gorilla-webdesign.be/artikel/42-WYM+on+Rails](http://www.gorilla-webdesign.be/artikel/42-WYM+on+Rails) Regards, Benny ---

Take a look at TinyMCE editor, its greatly helpful plugin, very flexible, configurable ! Now there is mod to make image gallery with rails+tinymce. Look for “TinyMCE rails” … look for WiKi 🙂 On Sep 10, 6:09 pm, “Elad M. - [Creopolis.com](http://Creopolis.com)” [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) ---

hm… weird… i just tried again and everything works fine here. First thing that comes to mind is that you don’t have a subversion client installed… do you? You can download subversion at [http://subversion.tigris.org/](http://subversion.tigris.org/) You should get output like: MBPjomz:~/rails/temptest bennydegezelle$ ruby script/plugin install svn://zuurstof.openminds.be/home/kaizer/svn/rails\_stuff/plugins/wym\_editor\_helper A /Users/bennydegezelle/rails/temptest/vendor/plugins/ wym\_editor\_helper A /Users/bennydegezelle/rails/temptest/vendor/plugins/ wym\_editor\_helper/test … A /Users/bennydegezelle/rails/temptest/vendor/plugins/ wym\_editor\_helper/assets/wymeditor/examples/README Exported external at revision 464. Exported revision 14. If not, what output DO you get?
