Implementing FCK 1.6 with Expression Engine

Load the FCKeditor version 1.6 to a folder called FCKeditor in your public html folder.

Add this function to /ncp/cp/cp.publish.php just below the setFieldName function:


// Dynamically set the textarea name on a DblClick

function setFieldName2(which)
{
if (which != selField)
{
selField = which;

clear_state();

tagarray = new Array();
usedarray = new Array();

var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor( selField ) ;
oFCKeditor.ReplaceTextarea() ;

}
}


Edit line 588 to look like this:

$DSP->input_textarea('field_id_'.$row['field_id'], $field_data, $rows, 'textarea', '99%', "ondblclick='setFieldName2(this.name)'", "onclick='setFieldName(this.name)'").


Add this line in /ncp/cp/cp.display.php at line 176:

"<script type='text/javascript' src='/FCKeditor/fckeditor.js'></script> \n";

To get it to activate simply double click on any textarea field.

To make the textarea a little larger simply adjust the fckeditor.js file in the FCKeditor folder. I made mine 400 high (the default is 200).

This is truly the best in-browser rich-text editor I have ever seen.
