 * After uploading the TinyMCE rich text editor plugin, i get the following error:
 * “the plugin does not have a valid header”
 * The files have been uploaded but wordpress doesn’t acknowledge it’s existence.
   I’m running wordpress 2.9.2
 * Can someone please help?
 * Thanks,
    Rishi

 * CKEditor came out yesterday, this works fine for me.
 * If anyone is interested in a rich text editor for posts here it is:

 * I just looked at the CKEditor, and it doesn’t look nearly as rich as TinyMCE.
   I’m hoping someone will be able to help us out on TinyMCE.
