jQuery WYSIWYG Reccomedations

I am looking for a WYSIWYG editor that matches a few requirements.

  1. ability to customize toolbar
  2. ability to customize styles of headings/paragraphs, extra styles in dropdown, etc
  3. ability to upload image (to a pre-defined folder on the same server.
    I do not want a full fledged file manager, just a “select image -> upload image” system)
  4. ability to do an “in page” preview (think wordpress) (php)
  5. integrates with jQuery

I have looked at a lot of them out there, but I can’t find one that matches all these requirements.

If you leave out requirement number four then you could easily use CKEditor for this. To get requirement four working you would need to implement some code yourself to save the page in a pending state and open a preview window. At least that is how we do it in our CMS.

As for a file manager there are plenty out there for CKEditor that plug right in. We are using the one Core Five Labs created with a PHP connector and it provides a nice simple upload interface that our clients get on well with. There is also the commercially available CKFinder from the creators of CKEditor themselves.
