I am webmaster for a small public school district. Their page is currently Joomla 1.5.15/TinyMCE 2.0 and plenty is broken. We're working to make a completely new webserver using Revolution for the CMS. I need a quick/simple list of editors to use. I work across a VPN/dmz 99% of the time, so it needs to be capable of doing that (browser plug-in would be great). They don't have need for a lot of the more complicated web services and won't have a store/purchasing system. Mostly their needs are documents (board policies), images, occasional videos (usually youtube--so need ability to embed those) and a few javascript-based widgets provided by 3rd party educational companies. Suggestions? I would rather take a sledgehammer to my head than deal with what I'm having to using Joomla/TinyMCE at present. Also, any chance there's an editor that has an iPad app? That would be bonus points.
Thank you so much in advance!

The top editors that come to mind:
ACE
CodeMirror
TinyMCE
There is also HandyMan which is a mobile manager interface that uses Markdown.
I hope that helps some

If I recall correctly none of the main editors are supported on mobile devices due to device limits. You would need to test them for a definitive answer. In regards to HandyMan, your only editor choices as I recall are markdown or raw code. You can't use one of the above editors with HandyMan, but you may want to check (

Ok, that's good to know. I don't mind doing raw code (it's mostly what I've been doing rather than deal with the other setup), just so long as I *can* do something from a mobile device. I'll check that link out.
