In looking for ideas, I discovered the http://plugins.jquery.com/project/designMode designMode plugin , which facilitates cross browser use of the designMode feature.

It's not exactly what I was looking for, but it's a step in that direction. I would love to hear other ideas! r. rolfsf wrote: > > I'm trying to sketch out a concept for an application that is essentially > a simple text editor or equation editor.
