    Rich Text Editor

    All,

    This is tough to know where to place this, as it's somewhat of a JS issue,
    but I'm writing PHP apps and you guys have always been able to help in the
    past. I'm building a Content Management System right now - and though the
    application works phenominal (probably the best app I have written actually)
    in Mozilla, and Windows versions of IE 5+, I'm having problems getting the
    Rich Text Editor to show up in Safari and IE for Macintosh. I'm using the
    'cross browser' one written by Kevin Roth.

    My question is: Does anyone use this RTE with their CMSs and maybe have a
    fix for the Safari issue? If not, is there another RTE out there that might
    work better than what I'm using? My boss is a huge Mac guy, so I'm basically
    going to have to come up with a solution of some sort, and though I know JS
    a bit - I've tried all day now to write code against the Safari problem, and
    am running out of ideas. Plus I'm much better at PHP than JS, so it's
    hurting me to not know the language really well. Can anyone help?

    I know. Perhaps you can say 'Firefox required on Mac'?

      Basically, that's what we're diong now, but since Safari is the default
      browser on OSX we'd really like an option to use it. Currently, Safari is
      picked up as the browser and there's a message to the user with a link to
      download mozilla 1.3+ - and the HTML version of it shows up fine, but the
      actual RTE side doesn't work, and my boss is wanting a fix. I might go in
      and start trying to write code against it if I can't find a better option :(
