[Mozile] Firefox 2.0

[Keijo Mukku]

Hi Max!

It's a normal (x)html frame structure with horizontal toolbar. Reason i have
made it to work from another frame is because I dont want that toolbar lays
on top of the page (for an example how to edit something that is on behind
the toolbar?). 
I think it is possible to make same tructure without frames too by setting
offset to a body or something... I havent think of it yet.

I've added some functionalities... most of those are plugins for
discontinued htmlarea and i have adapt those to work with mozile. 

My customizations are:
- Insert element. (Browse and Inserts premade html element to a page)
- Image Manager (Uploads and edits images)
- File Manager (Uploads and links files. Also act as a link maker)

As a tip there is plenty of good plugins made for discontinued htmlarea that
are free to use, produce valid code and looks great. Why reinvent the wheel
if some special features are needed?

I like mozile. Actually i love it. But i have some suggestions:
- It should have a interface for adding plug-ins (that's why htmlarea was so
popular)
- In my opinion it's better to not tie-up way mozile looks to how it works:
For an example if i want to use mozile from different frame/layer or
anywhere outside of toolbar I cant do it now without heavy altering (or i
havent figured out how to do it). 

Why not just create possibility to call function like BoldText() from
anywhere in document? Now these basic fuctions are so tied-up in toolbarcode
that it is difficult to make so. That is another reason i'am still using old
version because it did have clearer function structure.

Anyways, it's a great tool and i appreciate a lot you guys for making it.

Hi Keijo.

This sounds interesting. Is your toolbar written with XUL or X/HTML, and is
it horizontal or vertical?

Also, what sort of customizations do you have for the toolbar that aren't in
the standard xhtml toolbar?
