This is a simple Rails plugin to be used in conjunction with Hobo. It adds the ability to use the FCKeditor Rich Editor in place of simple textareas for fields with the type 'html'.
The plugin includes FCKeditor v2.6.3.
Install with
ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/GertThiel/hobofckeditor.git
The plugin has an install script which will copy some assets to your public directory (which is known to be buggy). Please copy the assets inside the public folder of the plugin into the public folder of your application.
You then need to include the taglib, e.g. in application.dryml:
<include src="hobofckeditor" plugin="hobofckeditor"/>
Finally you need to activate the JavaScript in any pages where you want the editor. To do this site wide, you can extend the <page> tag (in application.dryml):
<extend tag="page">
<old-page merge>
<append-head:><fckeditor-assets /></append-head:>
</old-page>
</extend>
application.dryml is in your app/views/taglibs folder.
You should now have a FCKeditor Rich Editor for any <input:foo> where the field foo is declared with the :html type (HoboFields::HtmlString) in your model.
FCKeditor is available under the GPL, LGPL and MPL open source licenses.
Hobo FCKeditor is available under the MIT open source license.

I used the code of Hobo YUI to quickstart this plugin. Thank you, Tom.
