This document describes the rich text editing controls for web pages
available in recent mozilla browsers.<br>
<br>
<h1> Enabling Rich Text Editing in your web page:</h1>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Given a document, you can add the
attribute
"designMode" and set it to "on" to get an editable document. &nbsp;For
example,
in JavaScript, if you have an iframe with an id of 'edit', you can get
its
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
contentDocument and set designMode to "on" like this:<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><code>document.getElementById("edit").contentDocument.designMode="on";</code>
</div>
<br>
Right now, you can't completely turn off editing by setting designMode
to
"off." &nbsp;Setting designMode to "off" will prevent certain
operations
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
from being handled but typing and other actions are still possible.<br>
</div>
<br>
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
<h1>Invoking Commands:</h1>
<h2>execCommand<br>
</h2>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Given a document that has rich text
editing
enabled (see above),
you can invoke specific commands on the document by calling execCommand
with
3 parameters. &nbsp;For example, in JavaScript, if you have an editable
document,
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
you can invoke the bold command by calling this:<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><code>editableDocument.execCommand("Bold",
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
false, null); </code></div>
Notes: &nbsp;If you haven't set designMode to "On", you will get an
error.
&nbsp;This could also happen if you call execCommand with the wrong
document.<br>
<br>
There are 3 required parameters for execCommand:<br>
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
<ol>
<li>command string</li>
<li>boolean flag for showing UI</li>
<li>value string</li>
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
</ol>
The first parameter is a string which contains the command. &nbsp;The
second
parameter is a boolean flag. &nbsp;If it is set to true, you will get
an
error (NS_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED). &nbsp;The third parameter is a string
which
is the value. &nbsp;Some commands will require details such as the
particular
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
size you want to set when setting a font size.<br>
<br>
The section on Supported Commands will document each command and any
corresponding values needed.<br>

<h2>queryCommandEnabled</h2>
<blockquote>This command operates on the editable document. &nbsp;There
is
one required parameter (the command string). &nbsp;The result is a
boolean
which is true if the command is can be done given the current selection
and/or
caret position. &nbsp;The result is false if the command should not be
invoked
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
(execCommand) given the current selection and/or caret position. <br>
</blockquote>
<br>
<h2>queryCommandState</h2>
<blockquote>This section needs to be written.&nbsp; It can be called
similarly to IE implementation.<br>

<h1>Supported Commands:</h1>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">The following list of commands is
presented
in alphabetical order. &nbsp;The commands may be mixed case or whatever
makes
2002-12-02 23:43:24 +03:00
your code more readable.<br>
