Good Morning Karlis,
While in Preview Mode, I would like to see cursor selection intelligence built into the program.... If I focus on a word or field, then switch back to code mode, I would like the cursor to point to the code represented by the mouse-click I made while in preview mode.
Along the same line, it would be nice if a block selected in Preview mode would have it's corresponding code selected once you have switched back to code mode, ala FireFox Browser View Selected Source.
Also, FIND TEXT STRING does not work while in preview mode. I would like to see that fixed.
Thanks for a great Product, and Great Support.

Currently we are not able to implement Code editor cursor / Preview synch, because it seems technically impossible. We just do not know how to do this (for now).
As for the searching function, it is intended to work only within code editor. If you need a search function for the Preview, please use the external browser preview.

Working Example
Hi,
I like this idea about the smart cursor. There is a freeware program that has this feature. This program is not in any way as sophisticated as WeBuilder, but the smart cursor thing is included. The program is called Alleycode, the website is: http://www.alleycode.com/. So this can work. Please give it a try.
Best regards

Afterthoughts
Hi again,
some additional informations, Alleycode is not very stable, it runs only for a few minutes on my notebook, no problem on the desktop. The notebook is newer and has all Microsoft XP updates.
The other point, it looks like Alleycode doesn't use the Internet Explorer for preview. Looks like it has a browser of it's own. This could help! But this browser isn't very sophisticated. But for finding text it's okay.
Best regards
