I'm not quites sure who here's working on it right now, so I'm posting it here. When I saw the HTML editor with long notes, impression was that every node is a miniature HTML document and just naively I expected that if I make changes inside <style> tags in <head>, it will make "nodewide" formatting changes. Even seemed to work at first. The Layout view changed reflecting my actions. But I click OK and all that change simply disappears.
Now I have been able to track down the pieces of code involving this, that was not the hard part. The thing is I just joined this list the other day, so I don't really know what's the intended solution. I'd be glad to hear of any options, but the ones I see are: 1) Allow <head> editing. But I'm not sure why this part of HTML was repeatedly and intentionally wiped out in various parts of the code. Is it to disable scripting? Or was it this exact problem that was being avoided? 2) Disable direct editing of <head> altogether. It would take quite a bit of patching to allow user-mods in the <head> tag anyway. So one way to let the user know that such changes are not supported might be to hide the <head> part of the HTML code altogether, and show only <body>. Or to somehow just disable editing of that part, but i'm not sure SimplyHTML supports "disabling" part of the code from being edited. Don't have much details on how SimplyHTML works. 3) "Node-wide" formatting is too small a scope to be troubled with this "feature". But, a slight change of this behaviour could be considered nice by some: the <head> part would be considered global across the entire map. Anyone changes <head>, adds a new class for any tag, would effectively change the head tag for every single node in the map. This would give such <style> tags the same usefulness as their website counterparts. Not sure if most ppl will consider it useful or confusing though. Could be used to quickly apply a specific combination of formatting to a certain class of nodes. Now I just need to know which direction is the intended one. Sorry for the length of the mail.
