Midas

philI have finally gotten around to setting up the Midas editor so that i can use it to post my weblog. It is really neat, just like the IE WYSIWYG editor I was using. It was really simple to set up (all done in my lunch hour). There is an API for it too so you can add more functionality than is there by default. To set it up all, I had to do was copy the html from the Demo page. Then edit some User Prefs. I added an additional Pref, (user_pref(“font.default”, “tahoma”);) so that Times new Roman isn't the defualt font (yuch!!)(How to change default font on the Gecko engine). The Midas editor is built on the Mozilla Editor. I will now never ever have to use IE again woohoooo!! (ok maybe when I require an IE specific plugin but that's it).
