Example: InlineEditor Events

Working with InlineEditor

InlineEditor is not a fully functional Editor, it is simply the base utility that will be used under the hood to create an Editor.

Creating the Editor

In this step we are going to do the initial render of the Editor, set its content and focus it when it's ready.

YUI().use('editor-inline', function(Y) {

    //Create the Base Editor
    var editor = new Y.InlineEditor({
        content: '<p><b>This is <i class="foo">a test</i></b></p><p><b style="color: red; font-family: Comic Sans MS">This is <span class="foo">a test</span></b></p>',
        extracss: '.foo { font-weight: normal; color: black; background-color: yellow; }'
    });

    //Rendering the Editor
    editor.render('#editor');

});

Javascript

YUI().use('editor-inline', 'console', function(Y) {

    (new Y.Console().render( "#console" ));

    Y.log('Interact with the Editor.');

    var logFn = function(e) {
        var tag = e.frameTarget.get('tagName').toLowerCase();
        Y.log('Event: ' + e.type + ' on element (' + tag + ')');
    };

    //Create the Base Editor
    var editor = new Y.InlineEditor({
        content: '<p><b>This is <i class="foo">a test</i></b></p><p><b style="color: red; font-family: Comic Sans MS">This is <span class="foo">a test</span></b></p>',
        extracss: '.foo { font-weight: normal; color: black; background-color: yellow; }'
    });

    //Attaching a simple event to all DOM events
    Y.each(Y.Frame.DOM_EVENTS, function(v, k) {
        editor.on('dom:' + k, logFn);
    });

    //Rendering the Editor
    editor.render('#editor');
});
