Question

I want the main body of the Edit page to be 2 frames. The top frame containing the edit box etc, and the bottom frame containing the Preview window. - so that when I click on 'Preview' in the upper frame, the preview actually appears in the lower frame. [instead of a new window]

Has anyone done this before? How do I do this - what files have to be edited?etc

Answer

I'd suggest watching EditOnPreviewPage and PreviewOnEditPage for someone to implement them.

LynnwoodBrown has done something like that which he talked about in IRC. It only allows you to view the current revision while editing.

• Example: http://skyloom.com/frame/frame.html?url1=https://www.twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Support/ChangeTheEditPage&url2=https://www.twiki.org/cgi-binedit/Support/ChangeTheEditPage?t=20260623140928

Swap the url parameters around to reverse the positions.

I don't think you can direct a form to another frame, so it probably couldn't be adapted to do what you want, but you could hit Checkpoint and then Reload Top Frame.
