WYSIWYG Editors

I have tried out 2 WYSIWYG Editors Plugins for WP.

1 is based on HTMLArea, another TinyMCE. Both are not bug free, so what would be the best choice?

Idea?
Do it like the dreamweaer style split view, 1 textarea  to show the WYSIYG editor, another the html source.
I still like the quicktags thingy and maybe some winks and smiley.

I’m taking a look at the latest mce editor and fckeditor and maybe freetextarea (and their plugins) to see what could be the best scenario.

As usual, some other wp user would have more experience that i do. FCKEditor as WYSIWYG Editor for Wordpress

I failed to cling a Business deal

today.

Reason? Ill-disciplined.

Someone please scold me.

SAJAX bag

So I’m still inside it.

To ponder upon.  What if 2 WP plugins uses Sajax? or just even 2 wp plugins using ajax? now there seems to be no/or some problems as most are using different individual libraries. How can i fuse them together? Will there be a need for SAJAX for WP again?

Now if ajax is used for comments eg. it asks for updates every 5 seconds? Can javascript detect when the user switches to another window so ajax browser will stop requesting and resume only after window has focus on user, saving precious bandwadth and processing.

SJAX

From the author of Twilight Universe, he created at least 2 good plugins. Touched and Autosave.

Here from his Sack of Ajax, he points out why he chose to use his own library over sajax or dojo.

I’m silly to be trapped by my own contraints spending my whole night on a single library. Its time to for a change, I wanna create application as fast as ajax, there are better stuff to do.

[testing touched - is there touched for nested comments?]
