I just posted a response to an inquiry in SoPW and forgot to include the post-tag </readmore> in my response. Hence, all of the code in my example ended up polluting my posted response.

I always use the "preview"...usually multiple times...before posting to ensure, like all good Monk guidance recommends, that what I am posting is really what I intended.

However, the <readmore> pre- and post-tags do not show in the preview, so I don't know how I can check to be sure that I got the tags balanced, and that when I use the pre-tag <readmore title="blah blah blah..."> That I didn't misspell or mistype the title portion.

Is there a way to have "preview" do a real preview?
