Right Rich Text Editor?
Anyone know what the best “Rich Text Editor” is, specifically for cross-browser usage? We don’t need anything fancy, just bold, italics, lists, and images (from a URL).
Free is also good, though not required.

There’s a lite and full version. The lite version is fully functional and free, but shows a link to XStandard.com that you can’t get rid of.
The pro version is $99 and doesn’t include the link.
It also outputs valid XHTML and is very customizable.
It works like an ActiveX control does, but it works in both IE5+ and Gecko-based browsers. Nothing like this (to my knowledge) works in Safari or Opera yet.

Try FCKeditor: http://www.fckeditor.net/default.html
I’ve tested it, it works pretty well.

If you just need basic functionality then check out WidgEditor. Easy to implement and nothing but the basics.

An ASP.NET control for IE and Mozilla would be FreeeTextBox. It includes image gallery functionality as well as rich text editing:
