You may use the SandBox to play with it: just go to http://wikka.jsnx.com/SandBox/edit

FCKeditor is WYSIWYG - that does not fit in with our appraoch of have simple and easy-to-learn wiki markup with an optional toolbar that supports and produces that markup.

It has other problems as well, such as relying on heavily-nested tables for layout. Worse, if someone does not have JavaScript or has it disabled (maybe by a corporate firewall) they cannot edit anything at all - our WikiEdit works in conjunction with a standard texarea on a form that will continue working when no JavaScript is available.

We don't support Wysiwyg and we don't require JavaScript.

As to compatibility with Opera, that is something that _should_ be looked into.

JavaWoman,
Doesn't WikiEdit also require Javascript? So you'd still end up with the same problem but FCKEditor seems to be more powerful.

My group (in other words, me and the programmer who works for me) is working at integrating Wikiwyg (http://www.wikiwyg.net/) into wikka. If we make progress we'll post it here @ the development site. So far we're having some difficulties with this. This might be a better/safer solution than FCKEditor (or the other HTML editors) since the pages will still be stored as formatted with wiki markup so will allow a user to choose which editor to use.

That would be the greatest thing to add to wikka.
