My tags are supposed to display in bright blue, and my text in black. At unpredictable times, some of the text is displayed in bright blue, making it indistinguishable from tags. This may — or may not — change when I reload the same file after next system boot. FWIW, we're talking about fully validated HTML files.

Dropbox is a really good service but Cubby is a great new competitor and I am sure many others will also like to see this supported. 

Please consider adding http://cubby.com to file sources. 

I maintain a Wordpress blog. However, I write entries using a different iPad app (WritingKit) then translate the result to HTML before placing it in the blog (Textastic, of course). It surely would save me a lot of effort were I able to copy from WritingKit and paste into Textastic. Heck, I thought I could. But I tried the other day, and you know how assumptions turn out. Dang! So I'd truly appreciate a little help. 

I have been trying to use <video> and <audio> tags but then while they play respective videos and audio as website, they won't play on Textastic local mode. It could be certain combination of tags but after hours of troubleshooting, I haven't been able to figure this out. Is there known facts about media?

Aloha,

I found the following two tool useful in creating templates:

1. To escape the characters that need escaping:

http://www.freeformatter.com/java-dotnet-escape.html#ad-output

(the instructions in https://github.com/blach/Textastic-Customization, do not mention escaping characters beyond tabs and newlines, but one has to also).

2. To check the syntax of the json file (otherwise Textastic will not load it):

http://jsonlint.com/

I don't do java, so these two tool were very useful.
