- I have a data from database.
- In my js file, I would like to change my CKEditor text editor's value.
- My value is raw html.
- I want this raw value to be written on an empty CKEditor text editor.
I tried these but got an undefined function error all the time :
CKEDITOR.instances.myEditorID.insertHtml( '<p>This is a new paragraph.</p>' ); CKEDITOR.instances.myEditorID.setData( '<p>This is the editor data.</p>' );
I tried this too but still undefined function error :
CKEDITOR.instances.YOUREDITORID.updateElement(); alert( document.getElementById( 'YOUREDITORID' ).value );
Instead of myEditorID i tried 'editor', 'editor1', 'editor2' but still doesn't work for me.
Thanks in advance.
---Update---
This is the html of my ckeditor text editor :
<textarea id="myEditorID" name="myEditor"></textarea> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function () { var myEditor = $('#myEditorID'); myEditor.ckeditor({ height: 200, extraPlugins: 'charcount', maxLength: 2000, toolbar: 'TinyBare', toolbar_TinyBare: [ ['Bold','Italic','Underline'], ['Undo','Redo'],['Cut','Copy','Paste'], ['NumberedList','BulletedList','Table'],['CharCount'] ] }).ckeditor().editor.on('key', function(obj) { if (obj.data.keyCode === 8 || obj.data.keyCode === 46) { return true; } if (myEditor.ckeditor().editor.document.getBody().getText().length >= 2000) { alert('You have reached the maximum char length'); return false; } }); }); </script>
