What version of PHP-Nuke would you use?

Benson, have you added in scan, validation and filter fucntions to Nuke so that the editor:

A) Can't inject harmful SQL into the database
B) Can't inject harmful SQL into the database even when encoded
C) Can't execute an unauthorized action

If not, this is just as bad as having TinyMCE with 7.7 and 7.8.

There is no "Quick Fix" for a Nuke Platform. The platform was NEVER designed for any WYSIWYG Editor. Quite frankly, it is not quite ready for as, NUKE NEEDS A VALIDATION FUNCTION CREATED FOR ANY EDITOR!

Without validation functions, adding any editor is simply like taking a bath with a plugged-in toaster.

NOT a good idea.

Do a google search by any of these editors with the word validation after it and you will see 1000 examples of bug reports (mostly security vulnerability reports) about people whom have used them without validation, being hacked.

Hi 64bitguy,

there is one thing left I do not understand.

What is the difference if I key those 'hacking' code into a plain textarea or into a WYSIWYG editor ?
