Edit text with unicode. This is a page where you can enter unicode chars by clicking on buttons. The button set cover several languages and unicode blocks.

Originally the script was an Opera panel. There are only some css-modifications to make it look more widged-like.

Release note 0.7 beta: easy creation of button sets with custom characters, button sets can be saved

Ran pretty fast on my machine, doesn't seem to be any lagging at all. Nice job. Thanks

Great job on this widget, i will not use this though, until the lag time error {data being proccessed causing to much lag} is fixed, as this is way to slow for me, as im not use to any form of lag, because i always am multi-tasking. I give this widget a 4 out of 5, because of how useful it is, and how much i have been waiting for a tool like this. Until this widget's lag issue, is corrected though, i will not be using it, ill add it to my favorite's, to keep checking back on update's related to this widget though. Keep up the good work, i know you can perfect this widget, all it take's is the practice, and of course, the knowledge to know, how to program, to fix the error's in it.

Version 0.7beta: fixed problem with saving your custom button set.

By gk-log, # Jul 11, 2006 5:14:57 PM

Since version 0.5beta you can add your custom button sets.
A button set with unicode-chars is added by entering a list of values/ranges, e.g. "32,33,65-96,355-360,8222", even hex values are allowed, e.g. "0x20,33,65-96,0xff-360,8222" etc.

There's still a problem with storing the button sets in a cookie. With the panel version of Edicode it's no problem, but the widget version doesn't store the cookie.

Runs slowly and not customizable for other scripts. Good idea though!

runs great for me (5 stars)

I think Opera does not support this, though it is possible in other browsers. Maybe you can bring this subject up in the Widgets forum:
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=1296

For now, your changes have made the widget usable for me already. Thanks!

> max-height: 500px;
Thank's for the hint. I moved the css directive from the body-element to a subsequent div. Now the scrollbars appears.

> I'd love to see a 'Copy' button, to put the created text on the clipboard.
is there a possibility to access the clipboard by javascript?

By gk-log, # Feb 8, 2006 6:46:33 PM

The best way to fix the height problem is to simply add

max-height: 500px;

for the content area

Thank you for your remarks.

As I wrote in the description, I just took the Opera panel and made a widget out of it. In the current version (0.2 alpha) I made some CSS-modifications in order to make it look more widget like. I tried to create a scrollbar, but overflow:scroll didn't work. Now I've increased the width. I also added a button to collapse the widget and to show only a title bar.

By gk-log, # Feb 8, 2006 5:16:13 PM

Interesting. Due to usability problems with widgets, I'd love to see a 'Copy' button, to put the created text on the clipboard. It might also be useful, because the lenght of the content can vary, to have a scrollbar appear. The default lenght is a little bit too short for showing a single set of buttons.
