Ctrl+S in Sublime to click on submit button in Chrome about ghosttext HOT 2 CLOSED

Thanks, Radu. Unfortunately there are a few issues:

• it could be as simple as textarea.form.submit.click() for <textarea> fields (like in WordPress' theme-editor.php page), but support for complex javascript editors and non-standard forms is more complicated
• how do we tell the user that this functionality might work on the current site or that it doesn't?
• supporting this means breaking the save functionality in the text editor.
• once you "save" the file, the form is sent, page reloads and GT connection is lost, so you might as well switch to the browser and click on the [Save] button yourself.

So while it may be feasible, it's not practical and introduces more issues.

Were you hoping to use this for the wp-admin/theme-editor.php page or in the post editor page (wp-admin/post-new.php)?

As long the code editor is nested into the right form this should be no problem, otherwise remote submission would be disabled.

• how do we tell the user that this functionality might work on the current site or that it doesn't?

If the input area is nested into a from tag we could show the user if remote submitting is available or not.

• supporting this means breaking the save functionality in the text editor.

Yes "overriding" the on save would be a bad idea but whats about a extra keyboard shortcut for submitting forms.

• once you "save" the file, the form is sent, page reloads and GT connection is lost, so you might as well switch to the browser and click on the [Save] button yourself.

I only can agree with you!

I'm not afraid about the issue but the practical reason is not clear at the moment.
