The long answer is that these functions (showTableBorders and showDetails) were quite easy to implement in IE, but just not there in gecko (the mozilla version of the editable area).
I'm currently struggling to find work-arounds (for the table border at least, I still don't see what could be done for the showDetails function), so if anyone has any hint, please feel free to let me know (I plan to release it as a plugin, thanx to FredCK, once I can get it to work in a satisfying manner)
I've had the form stuff going, all hacked style, since this came out. I'm not a clean implementer, nor good speller/commenter, so I don't share. But suffice to say, it's rather easy to, say, take the pre-existing code from 1.6 and the existing code for, say, the smiley dialog and come up with something that inserts a <input type="text"> type deal. But I get the feeling that this dhtml stuff is capable of much more, like checking to be sure there is a <form> tag, etc.
You may be able to do something like GetE('tableID').style.border = 1; or some such.... don't even know what showDetails is... sorry... oh, you could do a <div>, wrap it around the tables, assign some css... One idea I've been playing with is code that is in the source but not saved, so you can do things like, when the picture is clicked on, the image window automatically opens and whatnot.
Just an idea. I need to learn this dynamic stuff better ...
I've implemented the checkbox as a plugin so far. Should make doing the others easier... if anyone whant's it, I'll send it. (several files, zipped) it uses the dialog css stuff and whatnot so it's got that 'advanced' tab for id and style and such, but that is not linked to the nifty new css style picker pulldown thingies, just a plain txtbox.
