Finally! CKEditor integration with Lotus Domino

It's been over a year since I posted my demoapp of FCKEditor-integration with Lotus Domino.

The CKEditor (the new and improved!!! version of FCKEditor) has been out for a little while now. At first, the upload integration wasn't documented, so I didn't want to waste time reverse engineering the functionality.

I got a mail a couple of days ago from a reader about CKEditor-integration with Domino. I replied that I would create a demoapp of the integration as soon as the upload functionality was documented. Now it is (more or less).

The new API for FCKEditor is BIG, but that doesn't show on the CKEditor. Its fast as *insert something extremely fast*. Test out their demo if you don't believe me!

The only thing that's changed since the FCKEditor demoapp is the $$Return on the (f)ckupload form, and the hooks I use to rewrite the name of the upload field.

I tested the demoapp in IE8, Firefox 3.5, and Opera 10. Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

CKEditor must be installed in the ..data\domino\html\js folder (you have to create the js folder if you don't have one already). Test http://yourdomain.com/js/ckeditor/ckeditor.js to see if CKEditor is in the correct folder.

This also works on localhost, if you want to experiment on your own computer.

Read the FCKEditor-integration with Lotus Domino post as well. I may have forgot to mention some details.

Anyways, it's time to go to bed. Another day, another dime tomorrow.
