What? Creating a new new isn't useful to you, either?

I upgraded my laptop hard drive from 160GB to 200GB. In the process I was left with a chunk of 40GB of unallocated space. For the past 4 months I've ignored this space because Windows Vista's built-in partition manager couldn't do anything with it due to Dell's crazy ...

So was I. Luckily there is a handy configuration option that tells TinyMCE to leave your code alone:
verify_html : false
The resulting code should look something like this:
tinyMCE.init({
theme: "advanced",
mode: "exact",
elements: "html",
theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",
verify_html: false
});
Happy coding!
