Making content editable - Developer guides 编辑
In HTML, any element can be editable. By using some JavaScript event handlers, you can transform your web page into a full and fast rich text editor. This article provides some information about this functionality.
Note: In Firefox 63 Beta/Dev edition, some of the rich-text editing features have been disabled by default, for better cross-browser compatibility. These are object resizing on <img>
, <table>
, and absolutely-positioned elements; inline table editing to add or remove rows and columns; and the grabber that allows moving of absolutely-positioned elements. See bug 1449564 for additional details.
How does it work?
All you have to do is set the contenteditable
attribute on nearly any HTML element to make it editable.
Here's a simple example which creates a <div>
element whose contents the user can edit.
<div contenteditable="true">
This text can be edited by the user.
</div>
Here's the above HTML in action:
Executing commands
When an HTML element has contenteditable
set to true
, the document.execCommand()
method is made available. This lets you run commands to manipulate the contents of the editable region. Most commands affect the document's selection by, for example, applying a style to the text (bold, italics, etc), while others insert new elements (like adding a link) or affect an entire line (indenting). When using contentEditable
, calling execCommand()
will affect the currently active editable element.
Differences in markup generation
Use of contenteditable
across different browsers has been painful for a long time because of the differences in generated markup between browsers. For example, even something as simple as what happens when you press Enter/Return to create a new line of text inside an editable element was handled differently across the major browsers (Firefox inserted <br>
elements, IE/Opera used <p>
, Chrome/Safari used <div>
).
Fortunately, in modern browsers things are somewhat more consistent. As of Firefox 60, Firefox will be updated to wrap the separate lines in <div>
elements, matching the behavior of Chrome, modern Opera, Edge, and Safari.
Try it out in the above example.
Note: Internet Explorer, which is no longer being developed, uses <p>
elements instead of <div>
.
If you want to use a different paragraph separator, the above browsers all support document.execCommand
, which provides a defaultParagraphSeparator
command to allow you to change it. For example, to use <p>
elements:
document.execCommand("defaultParagraphSeparator", false, "p");
Additionally, Firefox supports the non-standard argument, br
, for defaultParagraphSeparator
since Firefox 55. This is useful if your web application expects the older Firefox behavior, and you don't want to or don't have the time to update it to use the new behavior. You can use the older Firefox behavior with this line:
document.execCommand("defaultParagraphSeparator", false, "br");
Security
For security reasons, Firefox doesn't let JavaScript code use clipboard related features (copy, paste, etc.) by default. You can enable them by setting the preferences shown below using about:config
:
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard"); user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "https://www.mozilla.org"); user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess"); user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");

function formatDoc(sCmd, sValue) {
if (validateMode()) { document.execCommand(sCmd, false, sValue); oDoc.focus(); }
}
function validateMode() {
if (!document.compForm.switchMode.checked) { return true ; }
alert("Uncheck \"Show HTML\".");
oDoc.focus();
return false;
}
function setDocMode(bToSource) {
var oContent;

oDoc.innerHTML = "";
var oPre = document.createElement("pre");
oDoc.contentEditable = false;
oPre.id = "sourceText";
oPre.contentEditable = true;
oPre.appendChild(oContent);
oDoc.appendChild(oPre);
document.execCommand("defaultParagraphSeparator", false, "div");
} else {
if (document.all) {
oDoc.innerHTML = oDoc.innerText;
} else {
oContent = document.createRange();
oContent.selectNodeContents(oDoc.firstChild);
oDoc.innerHTML = oContent.toString();
}
oDoc.contentEditable = true;
}
oDoc.focus();
}
function printDoc() {
if (!validateMode()) { return; }
var oPrntWin = window.open("","_blank","width=450,height=470,left=400,top=100,menubar=yes,toolbar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes");
oPrntWin.document.open();
