    Would it be possible to get rid of the http:// that's automatically in the box when you go to insert a link using createlink.gif and insertimage.gif buttons?

    9 times outta 10 if a link doesn't work it's because the url was dropped in beside it by accident.

    The prefilled http:// is selected when the alert box is presented. This means that a paste, pressing a letter on your keyboard or pretty much doing anything except actually clicking in the box will remove it. I don't see the usability issue :)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
