I added a new small feature to the comments section - if you look below the comment box, you’ll see a live preview of what you’re typing. Just another tasty treat from the gang at Empire Records!

    I’m looking as I type, looking as I type - this is what my comment will look like.

    COOL!

    Marta, it’s so people can catch typos before they submit the comment.

    Ivon, I know, it doesn’t preview smilies. I’ll see if I can find one that’s more robust at some point.

    I’m still not following.. Since it doesn’t have spell-check or anything, isn’t it just the same as watching the letters/words come up in the box as you type?

    I suppose it is. But it also shows any HTML you might be using.

    Love the Empire Records reference. I thought I was the only person who’s watched that movie enough times to quote it. #

    Oh, Tricia, I could perform that movie as a one-woman show!
