    Default What type of extension for this?

    I am writing an extension to insert javascript code after selected textareas to
    modify their behavior. The extension also copies files to the site and includes
    a couple of [script src=... ] javascript files in the head tag as well as a bit
    of other source code.

    I am almost done with it as a behavior, but while working on it, there have
    been a few times when I needed to refresh behaviors and that inserted and
    onblur or onload behavior into a tag.

    This extension will not actually use any of those event handlers. Is behaviors
    the wrong type of extension to use, and if so which ine would be better? If the
    answer is server behavior, is that reasonably easy to migrate because the
    documentation for server behavior feels a bit above me yet...

    Thanx,
    Steven

    From the sound of it, a Command would be better for you than a
    Behavior. Its API offers far more latitude to manipulate the DOM.
