Any WYSIWYGs that use contentEditable rather than an iframe?

Question

I am looking for a list of WYSIWYG editors that use contentEditable rather than a designMode iframe.

The reason I want this is that I want to have a few regions (divs) on my site that users can edit, and I want the styling (fonts, font colors, etc). to look the same in the edit area as it normally does. I don't want to have to apply a stylesheet to the WYSIWYG's iframe.

Anyone know of any light-weight, free/open-source ones?

Answer 1

It's not free but I personally feel that the Telerik RadEditor is hands down the best WYSIWYG around.

1. It's not free
2. It's .NET only
3. It allows you to style the editor to match your site exactly
4. It has some great asset management tools
5. It's super easy to configure.

Also if you can get away with a little less "fancy" I'd say that WMD is an awesome WYSIWY*M* editor, and can be used across multiple development languages (It's what StackOverflow uses here on this site).

Looks like NicEdit uses contentEditable. YAY! THIS MAY WORK!
