Subject: indirect-region (make-indirect-buffer) breaks major-mode  fontification
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:43:39 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <61136d02-7d49-4b29-82e4-3d970cb55175@m38g2000yqd.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hey there

I am looking for a way to edit java-script and css snippets in a HTML
document with their corresponding major modes. I've tried some of the
multi major mode solutions but found most of them buggy and performing
slowly. Recently I found the indirect-buffer feature of emacs. This is
exactly what I am looking for but it somehow breaks fontification.
When I clone a region into an indirect buffer the code does not get
highlighted correctly.

This seems only to happen when the original buffer is visible in an
other window. when I only edit the indirect buffer, then fontification
works as expected.

Is there a workaround for this problem?

Regards,
Senny
