I want to create an online markdown editor that has limited wysiwyg formatting. If you're familiar with iA Writer, I'm trying to create an editor similar to their desktop version. For the most part it's just a simple text editor, but it does a few snazzy things that I'm trying to duplicate.
I have a few thoughts about how to go about implementing this but I've run into some concerns with each of them.
Editable iFrame
Pure javavascript
Any suggestions to how I might go about doing something like this?

A good start would be to look at Code Mirror (http://codemirror.net/) whom already provides Markdown Editor and a Strong API.
You should be able to add features and live rendering on top of it.
