NukeWysiwyg and phpbb

Ok i put the raven 20202 in and set up the fckeditor(2.2) (nukeWysiwyg 1) now how do I make wysiwyg work in phpbb forums like they do on nip nuke? Nip is just phpnuke 7.6 cs 3.1.

Any ideas? I would rather do coding for ravenscripts version I think also fckeditor in nip does not work on opera whereas the new version of fckeditor at least works on opera 9 version 1. I'm not sure if 2.2 included with raven works with opera or you have to upgrade to fckeditor 2.3

The forums use bbcode to limit / control what can be entered in the forums. Although you could probably rip out the bbcode and replace it with nukeWYSIWYG, that would make upgrading the forums - something that needs to be done often - much more difficult. For that reason, I haven't even attempted to make nukeWYSIWYG work with the forums. Another reason: a lot of work with very little benefit.

Opera kind of works with 2.2 and 2.3. No significant difference from what I can see. I love Opera's speed, but like FF's productivity even more.

thanks ok well the nip nuke has it on phpbb and he added two tpl files you must use in custom forum themes but other wise it works great. you can do all the fckeditor stuff including smilies , bold fonts etc . But you don't have the bbcode confusing people who don't understand it.

I got it all working including phpbb but suddenly (not sure what h appened) i cannot see the fckeditor menu in internet explorer 6 +... you just see the white box but the menu never renders. you can type and post or preview just fine but without the menu. It works fine in firefox.

Interesting.

Looks like these files were modified:
/includes/bbcode.php
/includes/functions_post.php
/modules/Forums/posting.php

And added:
posting_body_fck_off.tpl
posting_body_fck_on.tpl

I'm wondering if there is a JS conflict that's causing the menu to disappear. I don't have time to play with this right now, but if I get a chance I'll dive deeper and see if I can make it work with nukeWYSIWYG.
