I suppose I'll just tell it to allow Flash from the cookbook, because you actually do need it to copy the text properly. If you try to copy the text by selecting it and copying it normally, it does not come out right when pasted. Depending on the browser I copy from and the editor I paste into, either the line numbers are pasted as well, or they are turned into bullets, or newlines or indentation are deleted, or some combination of these, none of which results in readable and functional code.
I don't see any Flash at all. Which boxes? The code samples? They're
just plain old CSS and JQuery.
... which don't work for me (the "copy" bit). :-)
