    Rich text editor for Category descriptions

    Hi

    I'd like the category description field to be a rich text editor as opposed to the current plain text one. 

    How would I go about changing that?

    Thanks!

    In 1.5 you can modify the definition for categories and add a rich text field on the category.

    Thanks Soren.  I've added a rich text description field called category_richtext_description to the default category definition as you describe.  I've added some content for a category but I can't get it to display.

    In Category[XSLT].xslt I tried changing...

    <xsl:value-of select="$category/category/@category" disable-output-escaping="yes"></xsl:value-of>

    to

    <xsl:value-of select="$category/category/@category_richtext_description" disable-output-escaping="yes"></xsl:value-of>

    ...but that didn't work.  What's the syntax for outputting the rich text field?

    Many thanks.

    <category index="0" id="67" parentCategoryId="" parentCategoryName="" contentId="" name="Software" displayName="Software" displayOnSite="True" description="" image="" definition="Default Category Definition">
    <properties>
        <MyRichTextProp cultureCode="en-US" dataType="RichText">123</MyRichTextProp>
        <Prop1 cultureCode="" dataType="ShortText"></Prop1>
        <Prop2 cultureCode="" dataType="ShortText"></Prop2>
    </properties>
</category>'

    So you would $category/category/properties/MyRichTextProp
