This ticket is still open and unassigned, but this SimpleMDE is a problem for lots of users (still looks different than the resulting post if markup is used, leading to multiple edits (preview option was disabled); no (browser built-in) spell-checker [I **don't** want an additional javascript one], no option to resize and other stuff possible with textareas]).
Why do I have to inspect the textarea with the browser developer tools and remove everything from the Editor component by hand just to get a textarea back? What about a simple button to turn the Editor component on/off (if possible providing the preview option again)? --- ** [tickets:#7954] new markdown editor fails to trigger browser spell checkers** **Status:** open **Milestone:** unreleased **Created:** Sat Aug 08, 2015 04:48 AM UTC by T.
