Greetings, Monks.

I wondered, given some of the similarities Perl has with JavaScript. If anyone has ever created an inline editor for web pages. Not unlike HtmlArea, and the likes. Searches here, and on CPAN seem to only return *Tk based editors, for use as a Desktop Editor/IDE for Perl. While I won't profess to be an expert, or anything. It seems that something like this should be possible. Even while Perl isn't so Dynamic, and ClientSide, like JavaScript. While GTK appears to have a "prettier" widget set. I don't imagine it's usage in this scenario being possible. I would imagine the need to create a "sprite" for something of this nature. My personal needs, where this is concerned are fairly simple; buttons for your basic B,I,U,COLOR, and possibly OL,UL. So. Given all my searches returned a basic NULL. I thought I should ask first.

Thanks for all your consideration

I either need smaller fingers, or bigger keys. :P

#!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use Perl::Always or die;
my $perl_version = (5.12.5);
print $perl_version;
