I am looking for a live-preview functionality like the one here on the Stack exchanges sites.
I am using a ticket system plugin called JS support ticket on a Wordpress site. It creates some textareas for the user to write in for posting messages. The plugin uses the built-in Wordpress editor for this, so the user writes and can add bold-face, italic etc. from the wysiwyg editor-menu just as the admin can do inside the admin panel.
I am using the plugin MathJax at the same time for math writing. Writing for example
$$a^2+b^2=c^2$$
creates a nicely formatted equation. It is the latex-syntax, and it can be tricky to get right at first try. Therefore I would like to have a live-preview right underneath the textarea. So the user can see the final layout of his message before posting.
Exactly as done here on Stack exchange sites.
This seems easier for me to achieve than creating an actual edit-button for the user.
So, all in all I need a field underneath the editor, which updates at every key-stroke and also renders the MathJax-plugin on the fly, so that the equation is shown as it will look right after the final dollar sign $ is written in the editor.
Would such functionality be possible?
