# HTML editor not populated

 * When I use the Rich editor in WP 2.0 and have started writing a post, clicking
   on the HTML button pops up the HTML editor empty. The text from the currently
   edited post doesn’t show up in the editor.
 * Is this as should be by design?
    If not, does anyone her have the same problem
   or a solution.
 * It happens that I want to tweak some HTML markup after I’ve already started writing.
