Cannot type into contenteditable

[AlecRust]

browser-monkey can typeIn() into:

• <input class="element"></input>
• <input class="element" type="text"></input>
• <input class="element" type="email"></input>
• <input class="element" type="password"></input>
• <input class="element" type="search"></input>
• <input class="element" type="tel"></input>
• <input class="element" type="url"></input>
• <input class="element" type="number"></input>
• <textarea class="element"></textara>

But can't typeIn() into:

• <div class="element" contenteditable="true"></div>

Which would be nice. It's not technically a form input however, so val() can't be used for fetching the value etc.

Any thoughts on working around this? Do people think this should be added?

it makes some sense to support contenteditable, but would you expect to type HTML or text?

@AlecRust what do you think? typeIn text or html? or can you be in different modes? (not sure how content editable works)

[AlecRust]

I guess HTML ideally since contenteditable doesn't change it from being HTML, it just makes the text of that HTML editable by the browser.
