Thanks. I'm looking at both of those now. However it looks like the CK editor's file manager integration is only for PHP and ASP and my app is Ruby.

Someone got this working with ruby (rails). There's a gem/plugin out there that gets the file uploading/system working (I believe it relies somewhat on paperclip,etc). Sorry for being so vague, but I'm sure Google will turn up something.

Now that's something. I found the link to this if anybody else is interested:

I'll have to try it out and see how good it is.

There really is a huge hole in the market for a Rails-integrated WYSIWYG editor. There are tons of PHP ones. What I'm seeing is a lot of people are forced to run PHP on their server just for the editor and load it through AJAX.

Hopefully soon there'll be more ports of editors to Ruby.
