I'm looking for a non-jQuery based Rich Text Editor for my web application. I did try nicEdit and it has cross-browser issues, especially with firefox.
We are writing application level javascript code as well, comparing the values in the RTE , diasbling/enabling it.

Other well-known browser-based RTEs include:
CKEditor

If you are ok with using Mootools framework. Mooeditable is a simple web-based WYSIWYG editor, written in MooTools. Works on A-Grade Browsers MIT license. Mooeditable
As far as size goes you can build your own using the builder and take out components that you do not need. Hope this helps.

Have you tried CKEditor? It's licensed under flexible Open Source and commercial licenses
According to their website, you'll be able to integrate and use it inside any kind of application, making it an ideal editor for developers to provide easy and powerful solutions to their users.
The cost of the license for a single website is about $400. You did say it was for an enterprise website, so maybe the cost isn't an issue.

Fast dynamic JavaScript WYSIWYG editor

Right now I am using the TinyMCE wysiwyg editor within my projects.
However there are some disadvantages with tinyMCE:
Tons of GET requests
Big
It is slow. I can't have a large number of TinyMCE editors at the same time. (Especially in IE)
Changing the DOM position of the TinyMCE caused issues where the listeners got lost.
Complicated to generate new TinyMCE editors dynamically during "runtime".
Hard to control by jQuery
Is there any WYSIWYG editor you would suggest?
A big plus would be a jQuery based editor as this project works with jQuery anyway.

You could try CKEditor http://ckeditor.com/blog/CKEditor_for_jQuery (formerly FCKeditor)

I'll suggest jHtmlArea, its jQuery powered and its quite fast
1 image file using CSS Image sprites
1 line of javascript, 1 line of CSS
I have used it in a lot of projects before and its quite good.

CKEditor is Slow!
If you need something as fast as possible, you could use http://unverse.net/Whizzywig-2011, but its ugly, so there is also something like http://aloha-editor.org/

JavaScript WYSIWYG implementation

I want to write a very simple WYSIWYG editor, but i don't understand how do they work :(
I've tried to read sources of tinyMCE but stuck in all those classes and functions.
As I know they're creating iframe then do some black magic there and everything works.
The question is: what do those editors do with iframe so it becomes editable?
Thank you.

The keywords are contentEditable and designMode.
Good sources to get started:
Rich-Text Editing in Mozilla (MDC)
element.contentEditable in Mozilla (MDC)
contentEditable in IE (MSDN)

very simple means you want little extension? In such case, you will like http://code.google.com/p/jwysiwyg/
Its constructor is really simple, but not good for extension works.
You can search JQuery. I think there's huge amount of HTML editor or rich text editor available.
By the way, the HTML editor inside Extjs is the worst thing I have ever seen.

Google released yesterday an open source editor:
http://closuretools.blogspot.com/2010/07/introducing-closure-library-editor.html
A quick look at it shows an IFRAME with the BODY tag with the attribute: contentEditable

Rich Text Editor with Gmail style spell check

I am after a JavaScript Rich Text Editor that supports highlighting words and triggering events when those highlighted words are clicked, like what Gmail does when in spellcheck mode.
I will need to heavily customize any existing solution, so something that is easy to extend would be ideal. Currently I am leaning towards TinyMCE.

Richtextbox or HTML?
If it is HTML, then you should stick with TinyMCE. :
It's (very) easy to integrate
It works across browsers
The toolbars were easy to modify
Wordpress uses it!
For what its worth, we also looked at FCKEditor but preferred TinyMCE
UPDATE: While some users wanted it, spell checking has never been on the "essentials" list. It has always been quicker / cheaper for us to teach the handful of users how to use the spell checking features of IE, Firefox or Chrome instead of putting it in the editor.
Imagine trying to code the 3 been soup example!!!

TinyMCE seems to be the best one these days. You might want to take a look at FCKEditor and HTMLArea as well. You can find a list of such WYSIWYG HTML editors here.
