I have written briefly here about Table Rappers once or twice – recently here and here. Now there’s a presence on the web and thanks to the liberally flowing creative juices of a very talented person around here (ahem… jEN), the presence is a little more than mere words in a browser.

It has been far longer in conceptualising and planning than actual code development, but the first release of my AquariumCMS (Content Management System) is almost out of the production line.

The content management system I have been developing over the past few months for a client, uses an online WYSIWYG editor called TinyMCE…. As someone who refuses to use Internet Explorer unless the sky falls in (at which point it would become unnecessary for a whole load of other reasons) this is a major pain.However, congratulations go out to Moxiecode for already releasing a Firefox 1.5 friendly version, actually TinyMCE 2.0.If this seems like an odd post, presenting the problem then notifying abut the solution, it’s because between the time I decided to write the post and the moment I visited the TinyMCE website, the new 2.0 had been released.
