in reply to Add Preview Button when Editing Node

G'day perldigious,

I would certainly support this modification. Your question's been asked many times previously. The answer is documented: "Is there a preview option when updating a node, like there is when creating a new node?".

    Woof, well since that post is from 2009 I'm assuming they decided not to implement that feature at all then.

    No worries I guess, it just gives me pause every time I do it where I have any update with links or code or anything more substantial than just plain text and I can't "check" it first.

      :) well open new tab to reply to your own node, preview preview preview ... could always compose nodes/replies/edits on your homenode, that way if your browser crashes your content is saved

        Well yes, there are always workarounds like that, I was just hoping for the added convenience of having the button right there when I need it. Not really a big deal, just something that seemed like an improvement to me so I suggested it.
