Yes, I've tried them all. And the JCE is optimized for Joomla. I was very happy with the idea of the so popular FCK, however it was not optimized for joomla by both of the developers. This editor is made with J in mind, the developer is continuously working on the software and providing the users with a piece of art in editing!
Thank you!
Thank you!
This is the editor that makes Joomla a joy to use. For me it has turned around my experience of using Joomla as it makes repetitive task easier and quicker - a heavy recommend!
A highly recommended extension and very simple to install. Thanks JCE
Ryan proved to be very helpful.i was looking for an editor that a friend needed cause he wanted to upload files. at first it didnt show the upload but was caused by the current upgrade of flash 10. after mailing i received a nice reply explaining how to set the settings and it was solved,and that in less the 10 minutes...
This is an outstanding editor that improves Joomla a lot. Thanks for your great work!
@tgelvin - Removal of the iframe-tag is a security feature of Joomla 1.5.8 and has nothing to do with JCE!
Note also that you have to activate html-upload in the configuration of JCE in order to get the uploads work with 1.5.8-defaults!

I have installed 1.5.0 stable with 1.5.1 plugin and the utilities and media plugins... All I want is to put a google map iframe on my site... When you get this fixed please let me know because I really do like JCE.

Well you're in luck because I have just released an IFrame plugin for JCE 1.5.x - http://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/downloads/plugins/jce15x.html
This is an excellent component. May be one of the best for joomla. The editor popup windows look very professional. The free version is really worth. I also subscribed to get the other plugins. I'm more than happy with them as they greatly simplify content editing and file uploading. Giving the means to members to upload their images or files on the fly when writting content is one of the most important features for an editor. The default way of dealing with files/images through the administrative interface is really a big pain for members with low skills. With the JCE image managers and other managers this task is just as simple as it should be. You want to put an image in an article ? then just select the upload button. That's it.
I haven't tried yet to write a plugin for JCE (this editor has a well thought architecture), but I think that this should be feasible.
One suggestion: to make a plugin to include community builder profile elements, or at least pictures of users. This could be added in the link plugin.
Good work.

This is one of the best, editors we have ever used. It is now the replacement, and default editor on all installs for our clients websites.
We chose this over our second favorite editor FCK because, of two reasons:
-You can stretch the side of the editor.
-Professional Look. JCE is the nicest looking editor around.

JCE, combined with JCE Utilities, is simply a must have. Excellent Advanced Code Editor, Image Manager, and Advanced Link tool.
The only problem I have encountered is when running the editor in Firefox with Adblock or Adblock Plus.
Some of you probably don't even know about the Advanced Link Editor because Adblock is blocking the icon, advlink.gif, that must be clicked to activate the tool.
To allow the icon to be shown you need to go to Tools->Addons->Adblock (or Adblock Plus), click on the "Options" button, and then the "Add Filter..." button at the bottom left. Type in @@advlink and hit the "Ok" button.
An admin on the JCE forums (quickly) indicated that this issue would be resolved in a future release.

I use it on 1.0 systems and did have a go on 1.5 :(
The installation is easy and works like it should. The basic plugin is the best edit around but then you have to get some plugins/adons (it doesnt have a media plugin by default)
wow ... now days you got to pay to get the plugin ?!?!

I had a problem using the JCE editor and the default path setting, so I emailed Ryan.
He got back to me within the hour with suggestions on how to properly use the component.
Well, I still managed to find a way to screw it up, so I made a little video of the problem and emailed Ryan a link.
He watched the video and promptly emailed me back the reason for my issues.
See, I was trying to set the default path to the root directory. Well, you can't do that, for security reasons.
If it wasn't for Ryan's quick response, I would have wasted hours trying to figure that out.
As it is, I changed my default directory and all is well.
Thanks for the quick response Ryan! Sadly, I don't get that kind of response from commercial software.
Keep up the great work!
