MyO post previews..

[MissWem]

[COLOR=DarkRed]I just had a thought that might be quite useful for MyO users.. it would definitely be for me.

I think it'd be a nice feature to have when you update MyO and have an option to preview the post, much like you could when you post at the Oboards. Because I know after using so many tags and different html codes it becomes problematic trying to proof-read what you've just typed.

It constantly bothers me when I post something, then double-check it on my website to find I have random loose ends throughout my post : /

Then I find it slightly annoying to read someone else's site and they didn't manage to clean up their posts properly.. maybe I'm just wishy washy[/COLOR]

[FONT=book antiqua][SIZE=2][COLOR=blue]I like the idea, and I think it definately needs to be implemented. However, I'm worried that the only answer you'll get is "preview it on your gawdda## HTML program 'cause it's not so hard." Haha, Baron got a similar answer from the members here.

So, before that happens, I'd just like to say that the idea (like most of them) are about CONVENIENCE, not necessity. It's like saying you don't need a mouse because it's not necessary. However, thinks are so much more convenient when you do.

Previews would be nice, and if not that, a simple HTML checker that checks for and equal number of and 's would be cool.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[color=#707875]This is a great idea. I think we are going to put in some new features after the backroom upgrade. This should definitely be one of them.[/color]

I constantly mess up my html tags that I have to modify my post several times. The sad thing about it is when I'm in the process of modification, other people visit my site and see the confused state of my post.

Also, previewing a post in an HTML program is not very helpful when you have Post Styles. Except maybe if you include your Post Style code everytime you preview your post...which is not very convenient.

With that, I can't say how much I need this feature, lol. Thank you for it.

It will be coming. Along with a WYSIWYG editor as well (hopefully).

That's all I'll say for now.
