JavaScript into, say, a hidden form field. I think that there should
be some mechanism to associate contentEditable elements with
forms—maybe the combination of contentEditable="true" and the
presence
of @name creates an implicit form control? The value sent to the
server could be equivalent to that element's innerHTML. Thoughts?
The contenteditable attribute is meant for low level wysiwyg-editor
like
behavior framework and it is not meant to work standalone without
scripting.
I'd suggest supporting <textarea type="text/html"> with a built-in
HTML
wysiwyg editor if any UA wants to support HTML editing without
JavaScript. In that case, the UA should provide a scriptable method
for
detecting for native support of type="text/html". As a result, a CMS
system could fallback to e.g. TinyMCE or CKeditor to emulate the
missing
support.
@type should only contain a type name, such as "date" or "number", and
"text/html" is a media type so "html" would be more appropriate from my
point of view.
I can mention that XForms has the same problematic and I implemented a
wysiwyg editor support in my own XForms implementation with TinyMCE for
XForms textarea control. In XForms, the type associated to the
target node
is used to automatically adapt the control rendering.
BTW, I even consider that "textarea" would be useless if only a
"multilined" type could be supported for the input field. A select
field
would be an input field for an enumeration... So input tag would cover
every possibility!
I think this is a problem that we need to address more generally. I'm
not
sure what the API should look like, but it's not specific to
contentEditable. I should be able to make a Web Component that submits
specific values with forms based off it's content. If we solve that
problem
right, it'll be possible to make contentEditable elements submit with
forms
without extra JS code.
We have the @form attribute in form controls, as described in
4.10.18.3. If @form was made a global attribute, every element could
be associated with a form.
If an element contains a @name attribute and a @form attribute, and
there is a form with the name specified in the @form attribute, then
the inner HTML of the element will be submitted with this form.
(As the submitted value is a string, I believe this would not even be
a problem if the element is the form itself or one of its ancestor
elements.)
The inner HTML of the element would only contain serialized HTML while
there are components able to edit many kind of texts, such as editarea (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/editarea/), which are not rendered in
raw mode by the component.
