I can't believe I'm asking this - but does anyone have any WYSIWYG recommendations for IE8?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Blah, my first training on Watershed Now (drupal.org/project/watershednow) is at a computer lab at a federal training facility that only runs IE8 (for "security" purposes...).

I need a WYSIWYG option that supports image upload/insert in IE8. From my limited testing, the image alignment button for CKEditor (via WYSIWYG module) breaks in IE8. WYSIWYG Imagefield sorta works and is my preferred approach, but that doesn't provide the alignment left/right options that the plain ol' image button provides in CKEditor.

Anyone got a bullet-proof solution for IE?

I can't say it's bullet-proof

I can't say it's bullet-proof but TinyMCE (via WYSIWYG module) with either IMCE or Image Assist has worked fine on IE 6+ on my sites. Good luck!

Thanks Martin. For what it's

Thanks Martin.

For what it's worth, wysiwyg module, the most recent release of ckeditor, and wysiwyg_imagefield seems to be working for me on a clean install. So many versions of everything, plus js interactions with other modules. Who knows.

chromeframe?

http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/ ? Only half kidding.

I'm not sure there's anything to be gained by switching to TinyMCE, it has it's share of compatibility problems as well. Particularly frustrating to me has been it's abuse of realpath(), which makes any deployment strategy that uses symlinks a huge PITA.

Easiest is to use ckEditor,

Easiest is to use ckEditor, with templates tool plugged in. Then you can drop in any HTML code you want.

They are so nice!

WYSIWYG API

We use it with TinyMCE, FileField, Insert, and Better Formats -

While all text editors are instruments of the devil, this combination causes less pain.
