Adds the Xinha richtext editor to MODx.

Description

Adds the Xinha richtext editor to MODx.

Xinha (pronounced like the Warrior Princess) stands for "Xinha is not htmlarea". It began as a stop-gap fork of the InteractiveTools.Com htmlArea WYSIWYG editor, but due to popular demand it has spawned into Xinha, a generally better version of htmlArea version 3, with a much cooler name.

11/20/2005 Notes:
Regarding version 0.3, this is still considered a beta because...well...Xinha is still a beta itself. Until a stable, official 1.0 release, there are going to be some outstanding issues with Xinha. These issues effect what Xinha can and cannot do in MODx. Most notably, Xinha is not the most configurable editor when it comes to its toolbar. As such, using Xinha as a front-end editor within a RichText widget is not recommended since too many options would be available for the average visitor. Thus, I didn't rewrite the plugin to allow for front-end use...I just think that Xinha is not the right editor for this. Also, I've noticed quite a few quirks in getting Xinha to display properly in all browsers (especially IE!!).

It is for these reasons above that I will not likely be continuing full development on the plugin. I might release an update here and there...but unless I start seeing some serious turn-around on the development of Xinha, I just don't think it's worth the effort to continue supporting it for the time being. This doesn't mean that Xinha will be ignored in the future...it just means that I won't be messing with it too much...at least until a more stable version is available.
