Details for Installing FCKEditor?

Can someone provide some details for installing FCKEditor on TW (version 1.9.1)? I'm aware of the vulnerability of saving HTML pages - my wiki is an internal one and all users are registered and trusted. I tried the install directions at:

http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=WysiwygEasyWayQuestion

but did not have any success.

That fellow has done some great work to help out as best as he could but the first thing is I would not use his version of FCK. Download the latest stable version. I am using CFK 2.2.

I scrap the non-wysiwyg option wherever I use FCK- it cause more headacbes and it is worthless in my opinion. Why use it if you want the editor anyways. Since I am limited on time here I will just say that you can follow the remainder of his advice about inserting the FCK code into your tpl file. DO NOT USE THE SMARTY LITERAL TAGS. Totally unnecessary as their are no curly braces in the code you will be inserting.

Make sure allow html is set and you will be good to go. There are limitations I have yet to figure out though. But I still use it and it works great. I would post the particular site in question but it is politically sensitive and I don't want it to get hacked.

I've tried every which way to get this to work and just can't get it to. The FCKeditor does work on my site when I go to the _samples folder, so it has to be in my code. I'd be glad to send someone my code if you'd take a look.
