There should be a preview button, but should also be a quick preview

BTW I marked this as merged since it has been, and I moved it into the 3.1 forum.
As for your preview idea, IMO it should be one or the other. If yours is implemented, it will be a simple click with not refresh needed. Does your preview update "live" or does it wait for the "preview" tab to be pressed? Also, does it use its own javascript bbcode parser or does it use ajax calls to the phpBB one?
