Here are several things that you could do, depending on how comfortable you are and how much time you have: 1. Going on what you say above, you could take a look at http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/talks/2006-12-08.IMA/editor.html. This is done by the same person that did the jsMath rendering and it is a very nice equation editor purely in javascript (which means we could probably incorporate it into our notebook). Davide (the author) says it isn't done, but it does have some very nice functionality right now. It would be great to find out what he feels isn't done about it, fix it, and incorporate it into Sage. The current code there is under the Apache license, so it's all right for you to download it, modify it, and distribute it. The file listed above in conjunction with the source code: http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/talks/2006-12-08.IMA/JS/jsMathEdit.js seem to be all that you need. 2. Review the patch and spkgs at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/4255, which provides in-place wysiwyg editing of text cells, based on tinyMCE and a jquery plugin. 3. Clean up the js.py and the notebook code in general. Note that other people are working on this as well, so it would be best to post on sage-devel about what you'd like to do or ask what is needed. This is probably the most work if you're not familiar with javascript programming and/or python web frameworks.
