have you looked at jquery rte's?  Reditor is in beta but it seems to work in IE9 Chrome and FF.  Haven't tested it in IE8 yet (your RTE works in IE9 in IE8 compatability mode so it's not a valid test).

edit: So it works in IE8 but the demo for CKEditor works in IE8 too so something you're doing breaks browser compatibility.  the jquery plugin seems pretty simple to use.  not sure how much work is involved in customizing the interface but it could be another option.  or you could just say "f browser compatibility bc it's stupid and impossible until everyone agrees to a standard. use ff"  :)

arif - the error that's breaking it in ie8 is definitely my code.. i suspect it doesn't like my using "delete" as an array key without putting quotes around it. i'll try that now.

as for other RTE options they're ugly and not as well developed imo. i'd rather put in the effort to get my RTE of choice working in all relevant browsers

 

edit: anybody rockin the safari? shawn? michael? oh who am i kidding they make firefox for mac

btw I can't move the cursor with the mouse in source mode.  not sure if this is a bug with the plugin or an IE9 failure.  probably the latter but I figured i'd share to see if other people are experiencing the same thing.

edit: right clicking moves the cursor haha.

Regarding the unread post pages discussion here:

I'm tracking the last view date for a thread per user. So I can use that to figure out what posts are unread (aka, count posts with create date > last visit date).  Based on that count, X number of pages would be unread.  

Yeah, I didn't go back and make the title link go to last page, but that's simple enough too.

However, querying the posts table with the larger data set is one of the performance issues I had with Old409.  It's slow when sorting by date.  I switched to sorting by post id, which is obviously faster since it's an index, but even still, getting an unread post count based on date per thread will be slow.  I'll have to see what though.
