Edit area

Here is EditArea, a free javascript editor for source code. (That is no way a WYSIWYG editor).
This editor is designed to edit souce code files in a textarea. The main goal is to allow text formatting, search and replace and real-time syntax highlight (for not too heavy text).

This editor is free and freely distributable (released under LGPL, Apche and BSD licenses). All I ask is that I receive credit for my work. I will also enjoy to receive mail to tell me if you 're using it, just in order to have an idea of how much this editor is used. ;-)
