Can I use CKEditor without a toolbar?

Question

(Possible duplicate: CKEditor - No toolbars)

I\'d like to create a CKEditor instance without a toolbar. I tried defining an empty toolbar to use in the instance\'s c

Answer 1

There are two ways I have seen:

1) Using the removePlugins option and just remove the toolbar:

CKEDITOR.inline( 'textarea', {
    removePlugins: 'toolbar',
    allowedContent: 'p h1 h2 strong em; a[!href]; img[!src,width,height];'
} );

2) Using CSS - Not the standard approach: (little tricky)

Just make css to display:none the toolbar, like

.cke_inner {
    display: none;
}

In version 4.13, you can hide the entire top bar containing the toolbar:

.cke_inner .cke_top {
    display: none;
}

or hide only the toolbar but keep a strip of color at the top:

.cke_inner .cke_top .cke_toolbox {
    display: none;
}

Hope it will help someone.
