Hey, I had mentioned to @productcart on twitter that they should have a tool when editing HTML code (descriptions/content pages) that will clean up the code and indent it properly. It wouldn't be too hard of a feature to include.

They told me to bring the question here. Thoughts?

What I mean can be seen if you use MailUp. In html view of a message, there is an option to "Indent Html" and I find that incredibly useful and thought PC should offer the same thing as it is difficult to keep PC code looking nice if your not too familiar with coding.

I thought it wouldn't be too hard for them to do something similar as they deal with Nweb and mailup as well.

Hi JustJordie,

Thanks for your feedback. We'll ask our partners at NWEB what HTML editor they use in MailUp.

Also, we'll send a message to InnovaStudio to see if maybe this is a feature that can be turned on in the code and that we have overlooked.

I like that too. I would also like to add that this could be used in conjunction with the header and footer. I have seen it with some other ecommerce packages. They give you a header, footer, left, and right area. So 4 sections to create the store's look. The eliminates the page creation and disection, with possible code errors or code duplications. The necessary code would automatically be in the files, while the design will be done with the editor. Sample navigation snippets or page links can be put into these sections for the owner to cut and paste into the pages.
