Easy to use content editing with TinyMCE

Web site owners prefer to have a CMS that is tailored to their personal computer expertise level. TinyMCE is great for the less computer literate user, as its button driven interface resembles the common word processors they are familiar with and all confusing HTML markup is hidden.

TinyMCE can be customized, allowing you to pick only the functions that are needed. Still some things can be simplified even further for computer novices. I'll show how you can hide potentially confusing options such as link targets and titles using CSS.

In this article I will set up an extremely easy to use editor with support for paragraphs, links and bulleted lists, alongside with cut/copy/paste and undo/redo buttons for convenience.
