Is there an editor that can be more user friendly on a communtiy blogsite. I was told about tinymce and fck, if possible is there a way that these items can only be used with a browser link or url and not the other items that it comes with. I am using the drupal 5.14.

I've been liking the YUI Rich Text Editor lately (http://drupal.org/project/yui_editor)
It's pretty easy to implement and to limit the amount of buttons.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand your question. Specifically where you want to use them "with a browser link or url" without "the other items it comes with". I use TinyMCE on my intranet site (still in development) And what it does, is: it places a box that replaces drupal's node content editor, where you can format text, add images, etc. The amount of stuff you can have it edit is completely customizable. (i.e. you can have it edit the font style, but prohibit the user from ever seeing alignment buttons, or the other way around, you can allow or disallow your clients to edit the HTML it outputs directly) and as I understand it, it provides quite good HTML output.

I would say it is very user friendly so far, I've tested it with people who don't know HTML but can handle computers well. I haven't had the "whats this button do?" crowd test it yet.

I suggest you visit the project's page:
http://drupal.org/project/tinymce

And the demo site for Drupal 5
http://tinymce.sidewalktheory.com/

Although this last one seems to be down at least for me, at the moment of writing this. I hope it gets online soon so you can check it out for yourself.

I think i'm going to stick with yui editor. How would a user embed a video on a blog using this? Is there another module that goes with this for html, or just use the link I don't think im doing a good job with.
