Question

Trying to incorporate tinyMCE into Flex 3 I have added the following section
to my applications html file:
<!-- TinyMCE function -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="C:\Users\Scott\Downloads\tinyMCE Install\jscripts\tiny_mce\tiny_mce.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
tinyMCE.init({
    mode : "textareas"
Is this correct?
Nothing happens when the button that starts the tinyMCE editor is pressed:
        <mx:VBox height="69" width="696" id="vbox_MethodEdit">
            <mx:Button label="Zubereitung" click="PrepEdit(event)"/>
            <mx:TextArea height="37" width="689" id="taZubereitung"/>
        </mx:VBox>
Her's the eventhandler:
            // Handles the editing of the preparation section by calling tinyMCE
            private function PrepEdit(event:MouseEvent):void { 
               //Alert.show("PrepEdit:  entry point");
               var s:String;
               if (ExternalInterface.available) {
                  Alert.show("Wrapper available")
                  //var wrapperFunction:String = "changeDocumentTitle";
                  //s = ExternalInterface.call(wrapperFunction,ti1.text);
                  s = flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("tinyMCE.init");
                  //s = ExternalInterface.call("tinyMCE.init");
               } else {
                  s = "Wrapper not available";
                  //Alert.show("Wrapper not available")
            // PrepEdit
As you can see I have been doing alot of experimenting around but the editor
does not start.  Alert.show("Wrapper available") executes and then all is
still.
Alot of people have entered posts about how easy all of this is to accomplish
but I can't find a single example of exactly how to do it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Scott

You are mixing up a couple of things here.
The TC drive cannot be partitioned without removing it.. did you do that?
If you partition it you must use a Mac disk utility and use the HFS+ ie standard Mac format. And GUID partition table not windows type.
You can select erase disk in the airport utility.. that will take the disk back to original format. No partitions. TC is deliberately not partitioned as it is not a media server.. it is a backup device for TM. Over time .. the disk will be filled with TM backups so you have a long history of file changes to your computer.
There is no media server in the TC.. it is merely disk storage.. you can serve files from it to a media device.. but the TC itself is dumb as dumb.
Now the actual format of the drive is irrelevant to the PC.. The TC offers SMB file services to the network. You can copy files to and from the TC as if it was a local disk without caring one iota about the format. The TC handles that .. it is not a local disk .. it is a network drive.
Although you cannot partition the TC. you can still copy files to it.. this does have implications for TM.. but as long as there is plenty of free space should not be a major issue.
You can create a disk image via the disk utility in a Mac.. and as stated you can create partitions if you do it on a Mac with the disk directly connected which means breaking warranty if any exists on the TC.
