Which WYSIWYM editor should I use?

I needed a WYSIWYM markdown editor for my web application and I heard that WMD was the obvious choice.

To my surprise, WMD breaks in IE8. What's my other option, or is there a version tested on IE8 and compatible?

Check out wmd-new . According to his website:

This version of WMD has been tested with IE 6, 7 and 8 RC1, Firefox 3, Safari 3.2, Chrome 1.0, and Opera 9.6. IPhone and iPod Touch support is rumored to work, except for the location of the link / image hint. There are several (minor) known keyboard handling issues in IE and Opera. See the issues page for details.

[...]

NOTE

Version 2.0 of this code was developed as a private bugfix / feature branch for Stackoverflow.com and is missing most of the extra features found in the original WMD as SO did not use them. Now that I put this on Google Code, I will add new features in v2.1, which were due out in February 2009. Version 3.0 should be released in February / March 2009 and will be rewritten using jQuery.



EDIT: I didn't notice this right away, but this project hasn't released any source code.

EDIT2: As pointed out in a comment on Warren, in the . See Reverse engineering the WMD editor for details .
