Disable blinking cursor ?

[Prathap BN]

Hello,

I am using a firepad based online code editor but blinking cursor on it is annoying.. I dont want the cursor to disappear but just want the blinking to stop..
I am not a CSS expert.. 

Can anyone help with custom CSS that can disable the blinking..

Thanks!

Hi Prathap,

This probably depends on which example you based your editor on. Firepad supports rich text editing with CodeMirror and code editing via Ace. So you'd configure those tools to change the cursor.

I Googled "ace disable cursor blink" and came up with this article. And there is a similar one for CodeMirror here. Looks like those may be a good launching point.

Actually I just figured it out.. I had to just set the .ace_cursor property 'opacity' in CSS to 1.. It would alternate between 0 and 1, hence showing the blinking effect..
