As you've pasted your code, myconfig doesn't exist when you start the editor and
render() it - you only define myconfig afterwards. So the editor's not going to
know anything about the changes you want to make.

Put the var myconfig = ... before the call to
> var myEditor = new YAHOO.widget.SimpleEditor('editor', myconfig);
> myEditor.render();

and it should work.
