I need a rta thatll work in asp.net. Its gotta be free and its gotta look good. I know asp.net aint a big thing here but I think most rtes are fairly universal so does anyone know one?

I tried fckeditor but it wont work for me.

Aptana is good for a lot of stuff you may use and find handy with a good interface, a few bits need to be done for .net but would be worth it

OR try
Eclipse

thanks, Ill take a look when my internet gets fixed. I managed to get FCK working in the end but it looks kinda office 2000y.

scite, gvim, textpad.

Just install the requisite syntax files available for download.

Unless you want an IDE in which case just use Visual Studio Express.

I always use tinymce.

I think Ill stick with FCK for now seeing as it works and Ive got loads more to learn.
