I have a test site with RN 2.02 and NSN News 2.0RC2, but haven't updated it to RN 2.10.

That was my experience so I ditched it early on, BUT, I could have sworn that others have gotten it working.

I think it works, for the most part, but needs some touch ups here and there...

I was using it on my previous site, I did have to fix a few things but after that it worked nice. Just wondering about adding the editor to it.

If you look at the download of nukeWYSIWYG, it includes replacement files to use with NSN News 2.0 with the editor already added.

Thanks, I did look after updating the post and saw a download for it that I hadn't seen the last time I visited the site.

I can't say whether this applies to NSN news since I have never looked at it but ... I was recently working with NSN scripts that I purchased as the basis for a Paypal application and they were DEFINITELY not HTML 4.01 compliant. For instance the attribute values in a form were not quoted. So, I think that if you use these scripts you might be cutting the legs out from under a lot of the work that was done to make RN compliant. That's just a guess that someone who has the scripts would have to confirm. And while it might not matter to you, a lot of the efficiency work that was done with RN, like changing to string concatenation instead of double quotes wherever possible, will probably also be undone.
