Source View requests

1. You should be able to search & replace text in Source view.
2. Source view should be colour formatted (tags and attributes in different colours).

Re: Source View requests

It would be possible to paste rich content on it. One would go to MS Word, copy something there and past it in the source, which would render that as HTML, showing images, tables, lists, headings, etc. I mean, not showind those things as HTML source, but really rendering them.

The same problem with Drag and Drop... you would be able to drop text, as well as images in the source (not the HTML of the image... the rendered image).

I think you are overcomplicating things here.
Adding a Find & Replace function in the Source view just makes it easier to clean up after a paste from Word.
For instance, I paste tons of stuff from university prospectuses, all in tables, and unfortunately the tables end up with different widths.
Currently I have to copy the stuff back out of FCK into an HTML editor do eg. a find on "width=637" and replace with "width=640", and paste the HTML back into FCK.

Re: Source View requests

Sorry ccatth, my comments were related to point 2, source coloring. Search and replace is definitely something to consider.
