Open Source Software

openWYSIWYG is an open source application, meaning you'll have access to the full source code to modify or customize it to your needs. Add new features, change the styles, or even optimize the code. It's entirely up to you.

What's New in This Release:
A bizarre problem which occurred with certain version combinations of IE and Windows where the textarea wasn't properly hidden was fixed.
The "Font Size" and "Font Select" buttons were fixed so that they are "unselectable" in IE 6+, so users can't drag and drop them into the editor anymore.
The WYSIWYG widget should now always update the textarea on the user's last command.
Minor design changes were made to the toolbar so it displays better in various HTML doctypes.
Undo/redo now works in Internet Explorer.
