Is copybar dynamically replacing the content and then next time when the page is loaded javascript replaces the content by fetching the value from copybar CDN?
At least it looks like copybar is not changing the actual CMS database content values. Please correct me if I misunderstood the mechanics.
The problem with dynamic replacing would be: 1) search engines get the old text 2) original CMS editing functionality becomes useless for that specific node.
Glad to see that contenteditable-type editors are becoming more viable. Looks like Copybar uses Redactor, but I'm hoping bergie's http://hallojs.org/ gets a lot more traction since it's the only one that's MIT licensed.
The good thing about Hallo is, besides licensing and easy plugin development, the fact that it uses plain, unstyled contentEditables, so the stuff you're editing looks exactly like it will look on the real page. I integrated Redactor as another editor option in Create.js a while back, but it looks a bit strange because it changes the styling of the currently active content area. Other than that it is very simple and…

Great point. We hacked redactor up so that it does just that, allows for unstyled contentEditables. Check it out with the Try Now button on the landing page, you can see the styles don't change.

Took a long look at Aloha, but it has such a big footprint that it scared me away.
Thanks for the pointer to CKEditor 4, I wasn't aware they had an inline mode.

Easy plugin development and unstyled contentEditables are the top two reasons we chose Hallo over Redactor for our project. Took a long look at Aloha, but it has such a big footprint that it scared me away. Thanks for the pointer to CKEditor 4, I wasn't aware they had an inline mode.

Thanks! Yeah, we're using the CDN to dynamically display your edited content.
When editing an element, we invalidate the cache on the CDN. It may take a minute or 2 to propagate.
Search engines these days execute Javascript so it can index this dynamic text. However we also have a backend integration solution (via a simple rest call) for people who would rather serve the content from their web servers directly.

I'd love to hear more about what you (and others) are doing with Hallo, as most of the interaction has been with the CMSs that use it
