Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.4) Editing text in an HTML form textarea is sometimes painful... Wrapping lines on/off is a feature I miss a lot. Another feature that should be usefull is to load (open) or save the content of the textarea... Syntax highlightning sounds good too... but ... wait a minute, don't we already have that in a text editor ? Yes ! Why not embedding kwrite into konqueror (khtml?) when editing textarea's using kpart technology ? It should be awesome to have: * syntax highlighting (wiki editing even more easy) * block mode selection * word completion * search/replace (excellent when editing a wikipedia article with always the same typo) * line numbers * load/save the content * ... and many more ! And why not having a wysiwyg HTML editor (Quanta kpart ?) when editing HTML in a textarea element ?
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 37146 ***
Bug #37146 (open in an external editor) is not what I propose here. I consider that both solutions should be possible but as explained in comment 13 of #37146, the usage of one or the other solution depends on the context. This is why I would like this bug being unmarked as a duplicate. For example, spell checking the content of a textarea field is *integrated* with konqueror and I don't have to "open it" with an external viewer/editor/...
