Re: Can't change HTML editor

Geoff,
I've read that a dozen times and getting CSS into tinyMCE is still a
mystery.  Could you fill in the gaps on my account?  I've been asked on
several occasions how to make the bg of the editor match that of the site
and how to add classes to the styles dropdown and in FC 3 it was very
simple.  I'm not seeing how in FC 4 but I'm sure I'm overlooking something.
