Scattered throughout the CreativePro Office application are WYSIWYG, or rich text, editors. Tasks, calendar entries, and project notes all benefit from text formatting and HTML like bullets, links, strikethrough, italics, etc.  While not full-featured editors, they offer enough formatting options to help convey more information than a plain text box.

The problem until now has been editing...it simply didn't work in Webkit based browsers like Chrome and Safari.  Entering text worked just fine; but, when attempting to edit, no content would appear in the editor.  We have now fixed that by implementing a new rich text editor called jWYSIWYG, a nice, light-weight editor for the jQuery framework.

This editor had been tested in Safari on Mac and PC, IE 8, Firefox, and Chrome and appears to work well.  For the notes area, you now have the added ability to insert tables into the content.  Image insertion will be coming soon as well.
