You mean WYSIWYG editor?
Try
TinyMCE
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/

FCKeditor
http://www.fckeditor.net/

I am currently using TinyMCE for my forthcoming project. It works well.

If you want an app to allow complete page creation and site design from scratch, there are lots of great apps available. One of my favorites is WebEdit Pro from www.interspire.com. It's relatively pricey, but very robust and professional.

If instead, you have templates or simple sites that you create for your clients, and then you want to give them the ability to edit pre-defined areas of the pages including images or even page content that you store in a databse, I developed an app named SnippetEdit. You can check it out at www.snippetedit.com.

The previous poster mentioned FCKeditor. I plan to incorporate FCKeditor into SnippetEdit instead of the old HTMLarea I use now. Main thing is that FCKeditor is compatible with Firefox as well as IE. FCKeditor is not really a standalone product. Rather it is an excellent component you can use to build a page/site editor.

Thanks :mrgreen:! The TinyMCE should meet what I want but unfortunately doesn't support Firefox (works well on IE). Previously I also found a few written in ASP.NET but my server do not support.

FCKeditor looks good, but it allow user to browse into the server when accessing files/images, which may be a security breach. I will download it and do some mod if possible.

Any other WYSIWYG online editors written in PHP or javascript? Anything as simple as one used in ebay listing would be great (require very little learning by users).

Yeah, if you are familiar with PHP scripting, and you want something like the rich text editors you see at eBay and at many forums, including daniweb, FCKeditor is an excellent choice. Download it (it is free), and check out the PHP samples. You can customize the toolbar icons to remove things you don't want. The way it comes is WAY too many features for common purposes (in my opinion). You should be able to script together a simple page editor in no time.

Maybe you can post your code to the Code snippets section of Daniweb when you work out your solution.
