1.8 On-site Template/CSS editing

[Skorm92]

I'd like to suggest a feature to be added on the template/css editor.
I use the template editor a lot, And I absolutely love it. But there is something that bugs me, which costs a lot of time if I look at the overall time spend on a theme.

The refreshing when I save it.

I'd love to see this improved in a future version of MyBB,
So I can save my template, check back results. and continue editing without finding back the piece of script I was working on. This is not a big deal on template's like "header_welcomeblock_guest/member/admin" but in large CSS sheets it can be quite annoying.

As a side note, It would be cool if MyBB would save the text area size I use.
So I wont have to drag the edges to resize it everytime.

That's kinda it..
Cheers!

Posting the text field value via AJAX would be pretty easy. Good idea.

That's not a MyBB feature: it's a browser one.

Actually this can be done with Javascript

Just save the values in a cookie and set them on page load as width/height.

Of course it can be done in JavaScript. You can replicate nearly any on-the-page browser features in JavaScript. My point is that it's currently a browser feature.
