Code Tester
Hey guys! So, normally, I send people to DRAAC to live-test their HTML and div styled codes but, recently, they've added, uh.

And, idk about you guys, but for me it's super distracting. I was getting a bit sick of all the text on the page anyway, so here you go. A new code tester based on their code (because I'm lazy lmao), with a clean, un-distracting page layout.

Just like DRAAC's, my code tester is good for HTML codes, div styled codes, and full HTML/CSS pages (but not CSS alone). Oh and, even after previewing, CTRL+Z still works, which is always a big bonus for me.

I like to set an entry to private then tell it to post on a comm that's using the s1 style system. That way, it won't accidentally post (no private entries on comms) and I can see it live with the preview function outside a journal layout and still get the auto save of the draft just in case.

That said, your code tester is awesome and works very well on Puffin and Dolphin HD via a Nook Tablet. Gotta admit: the main reason I never gave draac a try was the cluttered layout.

Ahhh, yeah. That'd def work.

I hate the page's layout too (So much 90s. So much text, lmao.), but I generally could ignore it. But the sidebar attached to the textbox in a table; I really couldn't ignore that. It just throws me off sfm when I'm working, even when I expand the box. So I figured it was time to just have my own code tester, since I'd been thinking about it for a while as it was.

(On a sidenote, Idk about other browsers, but times when Chrome would crash/my comp would shut down, Draac always had the code I was working on upon session restore, so I assume my tester will too.)
