Standards-Based WYSIWYG HTML Editor

by Tom

The Man in Blue presents widgEditor, which is a standards compliant HTML editor that can be embedded in any web application that you create. It replaces existing textareas with an improved editing pane using JavaScript. If you don’t have JavaScript it degrades gracefully and appears to work well across browsers and platforms.

I would suggest you give this a shot, it’s an elegant solution for editing HTML code,  and improvement over the methods you might be currently using. I do like the provisions it makes if I do not have JavaScript also, and my opinion it is particularly easy to use.

If you found this helpful or interesting, please share it!

It’s been working well on my site, except when people comment using Safari. Then, instead of wrapping text in paragraph tags, it spits out this mess:
“function (match)
{
return match.toLowerCase();”

Otherwise, though, it’s a beautiful little editor.
