Hi,

I just noticed the install file for the program as well as the zip file for the tinyMCE are still on the server. I would suggest in your installation you ask people to backup the files and remove them from the server.

Just a security thought,

Cheers

Which files are those? They may be something else, but I'd like to double check.

Don't worry about that one. The files in the /lib/ folder are more like modules or templates. You can't use them to do anything directly. Once you install the program remembers that in data/settings.dat.php (with the "isInstalled" setting) and there's no way to re-install unless you set "isInstalled" back to 0.

There's also some zip files in /tinymce3/, those are compressed files that allow the browser to load a bunch of javascript files all at once so the wysiwyg load faster. It's a feature of tinymce.

I'd be interested to see what you do with the interface on the backend. I've been planning to redo the interface and have a left nav at some point in the future.
