It's All Text! Description

It's All Text! is an extension which provides an edit button for any edit box. It's All Text! is an extension which provides an edit button for any edit box.Have you ever had to fill in a form on a web page and wished you could open it in an editor? If you use lots of blogs, post lots of comments or file many bugs then you probably get annoyed at the lack of true editor commands.I've seen some solutions that embed a JavaScript editor into a textarea on demand. Generally, I don't like them. They are re-inventing a wheel. Especially since I like my particular flavor of wheel, Emacs, though I have no problem with other flavors.So when I discovered the Firefox extension MozEx I was a very happy hacker indeed. But as time went on I didn't like the way the extension was going. It was trying to solve a problem I didn't have; it wanted to add handlers for things like ssh://, etc. and I didn't need that. I needed an external editor!When Firefox 2.0 came out, I MozEx didn't work. I waited for an update and it didn't come out. Since my new job used a lot of editing stuff via web forms, I really really needed an editor. So I reached for External Editor. It seems to have gone since then, replaced with Editus Externus which seems to be an improved version by someone else. External Editor had a huge problem. When you edited a file it would freeze up all of firefox till the editor quit. Yikes! However, it let me do things that I needed to do, so I use it.I started poking around in MozEx to figure out why it wasn't working in Firefox 2.0 and discovered that in an effort to support pre-1.5 versions of Firefox, it did a lot of work in JavaScript that could now be done in Firefox (md5sums) and it did these sums way too many times for my liking.It also had some potential security flaws where the browser could be tricked into fetching the contents of a file from one site into their site. Even more annoying, if a second user used MozEx and edited the same site, the files would collide.So I started thinking? how hard could it be to write an extension? Requirements: · Mozilla Firefox What's New in This Release: · Bumped firefox max version to 3.5pre4
