solution
	1. Download the editor from this page: http://www.tinymce.com/download/download.php This example is running with version TinyMCE 3.5.8 (the vesrion TinyMCE 4.0b1 found to have broken links itself!). Place this JS to Script folder of your MVC project. For instance, I placed it to ~/Scripts/JSScripts/TinyMCEEditor/. To add it in pretty nice fashion, create the tinymce directory somewhere out of the VS, and drag and drop it into Solution Explorer. The VS automatically will create folders files in both solution explorer and physical files in Solution’s directory. 2. Add this script to your viewer. This script initialize the editor. The red text should be replaced with the exact file name of the js file of the editor. <script type="text/javascript" src="~/Scripts/JSScripts/TinyMCEEditor/tiny_mce_src.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript">  tinyMCE.init({   // General options   mode: "textareas",   theme: "advanced",   plugins: "pagebreak,style,layer,table,save,advhr,advimage,advlink,emotions,iespell,inlinepopups,insertdatetime,preview,media,searchreplace,print,contextmenu,paste,directionality,fullscreen,noneditable,visualchars,nonbreaking,xhtmlxtras,template,wordcount,advlist,autosave",   setup: function (ed) {    ed.onKeyPress.add(    function (ed, evt) {    }    );   }, // Theme options   theme_advanced_buttons1: "save,newdocument,|,bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,styleselect,formatselect,fontselect,fontsizeselect",   theme_advanced_buttons2: "cut,copy,paste,pastetext,pasteword,|,search,replace,|,bullist,numlist,|,outdent,indent,blockquote,|,undo,redo,|,link,unlink,anchor,image,cleanup,help,code,|,insertdate,inserttime,preview,|,forecolor,backcolor",   theme_advanced_buttons3: "tablecontrols,|,hr,removeformat,visualaid,|,sub,sup,|,charmap,emotions,iespell,media,advhr,|,print,|,ltr,rtl,|,fullscreen",   theme_advanced_buttons4: "insertlayer,moveforward,movebackward,absolute,|,styleprops,|,cite,abbr,acronym,del,ins,attribs,|,visualchars,nonbreaking,template,pagebreak,restoredraft",   theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",   theme_advanced_toolbar_align: "left",   theme_advanced_statusbar_location: "bottom",   theme_advanced_resizing: true,   // Example content CSS (should be your site CSS)   content_css: "css/content.css",   // Drop lists for link/image/media/template dialogs   template_external_list_url: "lists/template_list.js",   external_link_list_url: "lists/link_list.js",   external_image_list_url: "lists/image_list.js",   media_external_list_url: "lists/media_list.js",   // Style formats   style_formats: [   { title: 'Bold text', inline: 'b' },   { title: 'Red text', inline: 'span', styles: { color: '#ff0000' } },   { title: 'Red header', block: 'h1', styles: { color: '#ff0000' } },   { title: 'Example 1', inline: 'span', classes: 'example1' },   { title: 'Example 2', inline: 'span', classes: 'example2' },   { title: 'Table styles' },   { title: 'Table row 1', selector: 'tr', classes: 'tablerow1' }   ],   // Replace values for the template plugin   template_replace_values: {    username: "Some User",    staffid: "991234"   }  }); </script> 3. Call the editor via textarea element. Instead of the helper, write the html code by your self ("Description" is the name of the field)   remove this: @Html.EditorFor(model => model.Description)   with this: @Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Description)   or with this: <textarea id="Description" name="Description" rows="15" cols="50" style="width: 80%" runat="server">@Html.Raw(Model.Description)</textarea> 4. Update your MVC model to allow html scripts from the Viewer. Add the attribute [AllowHtml] to your Model's attribute, to avoid validation html form error request. Use using System.Web.Mvc; 5 . To Show the value as Html rich format, use the HTML.Raw helper as above @Html.Raw(item.Description)
