Neat Extras

Besides the well advertised feature set wysihtml5 offers some hidden gems that might be useful to developers (this is an incomplete list).

  • When the browser supports rich text formatting the <body> of the page receives a css class “wysihtml5-supported”. This can be useful if you want to display some hints or activate certain UI elements.
  • When the browser supports rich text formatting a hidden <input> with name “_wysihtml5_mode” and value “1” is inserted after the textarea. This can be used on the server side to specially treat wysihtml5 output after form submit.
  • If within a <form>, the editor hooks into the “reset” and “submit” events and ensures that the rich text element is in sync with the original <textarea>
  • Following keyboard shortcuts are supported: bold (CTRL + B), italic (CTRL + I), underline (CTRL + U)
