About Aloha Editor:

Aloha Editor is an open source project with the goal of re-imagining rich-text editing and content creating on the web. It became the WYSIWYG editor that pioneered a successful implementation of inline rich-text editing by breaking from the conventions of using iframe as editing sandboxes, and opening up the entire page as a canvas. In doing so Aloha Editor created an editing experience that was truly WYSIWYG.
