[TxMt] Web preview disappears?

[Brett Terpstra]

I had tried the "live css editing..." and had great results when the  
page had a load time in the milliseconds, but it's a little  
cumbersome with a 2 second load time.  I've actually had the best  
results using Command-R and Command-Shift-R (my own concoction),  
combined with the Transmit commands when I'm working remotely.  I was  
just curious about the live preview, not a big deal.  BTW, there is  
now a plugin for Firefox that does the same thing as the bookmarklet:  
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/115/

Thanks,
Brett
