Rage Against the Text Area

Sometimes in technology, you take a couple steps back in the pursuit of progress. A good example of this is many of the crude editors that are provided by wikis and blogs, if an editor is even provided at all. I found myself editing raw html content lately in a text area and that didn't give me a warm fuzzy.

Luckily, a new Firefox extension, called Xihna Here! enables WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editing in any Firefox text area. Once you install the extension, all you need to do is right-click on any text area, select Xihna Here! from the context menu, and the Xihna Here! editor displays in all its WYSIWYG glory. You instantly have a full-blown editor to get your work done fast and furious.

So, what are you waiting for?  Download Xihna Here! and don't be afraid of the text area void ever again.
