''Success story 1" I am a strong editor who generally uses the code view to edit pages due to my first use of wikis. But for some things, I see the benefit of using the RTE. And this is where I encounter problems.

It seems entirely reasonable for an visual editor to struggle with much of the fancier complex coding that me and others add to a page. But I wanted to work on my main page to spruce it up a bit through the RTE. So I proceed to make templates of everything that could cause a problem. "RTE mode disabled" I remove some comments. "still disabled" I removed every comment there was along with templates. "allowed" So i try to go back to see which feature was causing the problem. Add a comment. Its fine with it. Add a few more. I get to four..."RTE mode disabled".

And after all that, it turns out the editor doesn't like two comments back to back. "--><!--" counts as complex code. Glad I found that.
