Firstly, just to say - awesome. Thanks for your hard work, Steve. I installed the large tinymce module first and had several issues straight away that this implementation fixes - smart and smooth so far. I was almost going to give up using a wysiwyg editor, but this just might work for our school website.

1)
In the 'Exclude these text areas' section, I don't see anything about pathauto.
Given this issue with the tinymce module: http://drupal.org/node/175772
... should I add 'edit-pathauto-ignore-words' to this section?
Also, I'm wondering if a list fields to *include* would be a lot shorter and safer than ones to exclude?

2)
What are the possibilites and options available for adding custom buttons which handle media (other than inline images, which is taken care of by IMCE)? My aim is to allow children of ten years old and their technophobic teachers to be able to add streaming media to their posts.

Examples:
I've found out that youtube urls work using the embed button. Great!
I assume that other flash files (eg games, other video sites, etc) will also display/play if hotlinking is allowed?

I tried an mp3; quicktime played it in the tinymce field whie editing, but not after saving (I saved using 'full html') - I don't know why it didn't work, but I'd prefer to use a flash media player instead of quicktime. How would I go about creating a button for mp3? Are there any resources you could point me to?

How could users insert inline images that, when clicked, open in lightbox2?

3)
When the TTMCE editor is turned off (default state), if I also installed the BUEditor, would it display and work? When I switched the TTMCE editor on, would BUEditor vanish? In other words, can the two editors be installed and used simultaneously?

4)
A request. I love the text-field resize feature, but is it possible to get it only to resize vertically like the drupal one? Dragging horizontally breaks the site and editor a little bit.

Cheers.

1) Exclude/include - I will consider building this in as an option

2) If it's possible in TinyMCE (the rich text editor, not the Drupal module) it should be possible to configure in tinytinymce. You would need to install the plugin in the tinymce libarary - you would also need to modify the init string, which can be done in tinytinymce admin.

There's a separate issue on the lightbox question - tinymce strips the class="lightbox" attribute. I've posted a way which should avoid this at http://drupal.org/node/285270 (but not had feedback from the poster whether it worked for them - it worked for me, though!)

3) Co-exist with BUEditor - hmmmmm..... try it and see - it's hard to predict what will happen.

4) Resize feature - this is built in to tinymce, not my module. So it would be very tricky to alter, I'm afraid. Though I do agree that the Drupal feature generally works nicely. I tend to use tinymce's full screen button if I've got any serious editing to do so I don't need to use the resize feature.

I hope some of this helps.

Steve
