CKEditor Installation

Hi there!

I am running:

CakePHP: 2.1.1 stable
CKEditor: CKEditor 3.6.2

On a local server, I extracted the directory to my root directory.

http://localhost:8888/admin/ckeditor/

WIth admin being the root directory.

I tried the samples directory:
http://localhost:8888/admin/ckeditor/_s ... index.html

And I'm presented with a white page with unordered lists. Each link goes to a demo of sorts that works properly.

In one of my cakeviews, I include the javascript file:

<html>
<head>
<title>Sample CKEditor Site</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>
</head>

I doublecheck and the IDE confirms that it's able to access the javascript file. Great.

I test the sample script provided for "Quick Start", below:

<form method="post">
    <p>
        My Editor:<br />
        <textarea id="editor1" name="editor1">&lt;p&gt;Initial value.&lt;/p&gt;</textarea>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor1' );
        </script>
    </p>
    <p>
        <input type="submit" />
    </p>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Re: CKEditor Installation

If you extract the contents of CKEditor under http://localhost:8888/admin/ckeditor/, then your script should load it from that path
<script type="text/javascript" src="/admin/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>

I don't really understand why the IDE states that the previous path is right, but I also can't understand why you say that your root is /admin/ instead of /
