Embed HTML in NicEdit WYSIWYG

Question

How to insert text / code at cursor position in div created by NicEdit?

I tried to read the documentation and create my own plugin, but I want it to work without a toolbar (Modal window)

Answer 1

This is a quick fix and tested only in firefox. But it works and needs to be adapted for IE and other browsers.

function insertAtCursor(editor, value){
    var editor = nicEditors.findEditor(editor);
    var range = editor.getRng();                    
    var editorField = editor.selElm();
    editorField.nodeValue = editorField.nodeValue.substring(0, range.startOffset) +
                            value +
                            editorField.nodeValue.substring(range.endOffset, editorField.nodeValue.length);
}

The way I solved this is to make the divEdit of an instance of a droppable div using jQuery UI; but also make all elements in div divable.

$('div.nicEdit-main').droppable({
    activeClass: 'dropReady',
    hoverClass: 'dropPending',
    drop: function(event,ui) {
    $(this).find('.cursor').removeClass('cursor');
  },
  over: function(event, ui) {
    if($(this).find('.cursor').length == 0) {
      var insertEl = $('<span class="cursor"/>').append($(ui.draggable).attr('value'));
      $(this).append(insertEl);
    }
  },
  out: function(event, ui) {
    $(this).find('.cursor').remove();
  },
  greedy: true
});

$('div.nicEdit-main').find('*').droppable({
  activeClass: 'dropReady',
  hoverClass: 'dropPending',
  drop: function(event,ui) {
    $(this).find('.cursor').removeClass('cursor');
  },
  over: function(event, ui) {
    var insertEl = $('<span class="cursor"/>').append($(ui.draggable).attr('value'));
    $(this).append(insertEl);
  },
  out: function(event, ui) {
    $(this).find('.cursor').remove();
  },
  greedy: true
});

Then make your code or text draggable:

$('.field').draggable({
                appendTo: '.content', //This is just a higher level DOM element
                revert: true,
                cursor: 'pointer',
                zIndex: 1500, // Make sure draggable drags above everything else
                containment: 'DOM',
                helper: 'clone' //Clone it while dragging (keep original intact)
            });

, :

function neInsertHTML(value){
    $('.nicEdit-main').focus(); // Without focus it wont work!
    // Inserts into first instance, you can replace it by nicEditors.findEditor('ID');
    myNicEditor.nicInstances[0].nicCommand('InsertHTML', value); 
}
