The JavaScript ones (e.g. TinyMCE and FCKeditor) should work on Linux in Firefox, Xstandard doesn’t yet, but could support in future if there was enough demand.

I would like to see this in Linux. How hard can it be to make a plugin that already exists for firefox work in firefox for linux as well? Isn’t it all just javascript?

Out of interest, is there a Linux version of XStandard?

No plans at this time for a Linux version but if more people request it, then we are open supporting Linux.

I couldn’t see an easy ‘requirements’ link on the site

It's in two places: - First page of the Developers Guide - Download page

Hi Vlad,

Fair point, although at the time I wrote this, there wasn’t a Mac version (or at least it was in beta). Out of interest, is there a Linux version of XStandard? I couldn’t see an easy ‘requirements’ link on the site, although I’m sure there must be something there.

The same JavaScript editors also generate different markup in different browsers which is not very interoperable.

That’s going to be very annoying in testing, and one of the reasons there is browser/platform info on the checklist.

You wrote:

using a plugin impacts the interoperability, as it doesn’t support as many browsers or operating systems.

If you count the number of OS and browser/version combinations, I think you will find that XStandard will run on more systems than pure JavaScript editors. Most JavaScript editors do not work on Safari or Opera or offer very limited features.
