I’m building a small plug-in that has a text editor to edit HTML and CSS code. My problem is that when trying to edit the HTML and CSS code from the text area element, I found out that it’s not convenient.
For example, the tab button jumps you to the next element instead of inserting a tab.
I’m looking for a lightweight script to improve the textarea element. Any ideas?
I’ve used this in the past. Works well for tabs.

Beyond that, TinyMCE is fairly standard for more rich-text situations.
