I was just doing a diff of some modifications I made to a recent Quick Answer I posted and noticed that it is pretty much useless. If a line has a change, it seems to cross out the entire line on the left and show the non-crossed out new version on the right. The colorization also does not go past the initial viewing window (i.e., when I scroll to the right, there is no colorization). This is basically like having me line up 2 instances of notepad side by side to try and figure out what the diffs are manually.

If you are having trouble using a textarea to display the diff, why not just use a wrapped fixed size structure? Perhaps just an HTML table in which each TD contains a single letter (the left table for the old version and the right table for the new version). That way, you don't have do do anything fancy... you can just give each TD a background color according to its diff (new text, deleted text, modified text, etc.). And if you are worried about bandwidth, you can just transmit the data in a compressed format and parse it into HTML on the client side using some JavaScript.

I realize the textarea with synchronized scrolling is neat and all, but I thought I'd suggest a simple solution to you so you can get something workable up and running.

I'm running IE8 on Windows XP Home with Service Pack 3.

Also, not sure if you care, but the textareas don't sync when using Chrome. And the colorization issues occur on IE8, Chrome, and Firefox.

Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.
