Today we put the finishing touches on a new WYSIWYG editor that your clients use when adding their content to your templates. Here are some of the highlights...

Now works in Safari

If you or your clients are running Safari version 3 or later, you'll now be able to use the WYSIWYG editor instead of the default textarea. You could always use Firefox or Camino on the Mac to access the editor, but if Safari's your browser of choice (it's mine), there's no need to switch. Here's a screenshot of it in action in Safari.

No more popup blocker issues

Because we force all pasting to plain text (to make sure your clients don't import a big chunk of Ugly Word formatting), we used to popup a dialog window when pasting. Turns out some browsers popup blockers would stop this window from opening, meaning paste just wouldn't work.

We now open the paste dialog (and the insert link dialog) in an overlay div on the same page, so it works for everyone (and is also faster to appear).

Faster and more reliable in all browsers

This update brings some nice stability improvements and ensures that no matter what client or OS your client is using, the editor should work consistently and reliably. We hope you like it.
