My fairly current installation of Zenphoto and Zenpage use timemce v. 1.3.1

It works fairly well but I have some problems with it from time to time.

At the tinymce site it says they are on version 3.3.9

Would it be easy to install the new one?

Has anyone else done this and does it work better?

Thanks.

The TinyMCE in the nightly builds says it is at version 3.6, so you might want to try the nightly build.

No correct, the svn uses 3.3.6 (it says "minor version 3.6" in the source!). The current version is indeed 3.3.9.2.

And to answer the 2nd part of the question, it should be possible to update that independly as we use it quite directly. Keep in mind that we use two custom plugins (ajaxfilemanger and tinyzenpage) so you don't delete these.

OK, I was not comfortable installing the nightly update so I opted to update timymce directly.

I am not sure it took. In my ZenPhoto Administration Plug In Tabs, "tiny_mce v1.3.1 " is still listed.

Here are the steps I took:

1. Copied my folder mysite.com/zp-core/zp-extensions/tiny_mce to make a backup

2. Downloaded tinymce 3.3.9.2

3. Replaced everything within mysite.com/zp-core/zp-extensions/tiny_mce with the matching directories and files from the download except for:

mysite.com/zp-core/zp-extensions/tiny_mce/plugins/ajaxfilemanager
and
mysite.com/zp-core/zp-extensions/tiny_mce/pplugins/tinyzenpage

Things still seem to be working but I cannot tell for sure and I do not know a way to verify that the plugin I am using is the current one.

Any thoughts or problems with what I did?

The current svn/nightly build has also the latest TinyMCE now. The 1.3.1 refers to the plugin version which for official plugins always reflects the Zenphoto version.
