Find and Replace

28 Jun 20171 minute to read

RTE provides find and replace support, which is used to search for a keyword in RTE content and replace the matched keyword with a specified text. In order to use it, we have to enable the find and replace item in the editor toolbar (or) Press CTRL+F key.

  • HTML
  • <textarea id="texteditor" ej-rte e-tools="tools">
        <p><b>Description:</b></p>
        <p>
            The Rich Text Editor (RTE) control is easy to render in the
            client side. Customers can easily edit the contents and get the HTML content for
            the displayed content. A rich text editor control provides users with a toolbar
            that helps them to apply rich text formats to the text entered in the text
            area.
        </p>
    </textarea>
    
    <script>
    
        angular.module('rteApp', ['ejangular'])
        .controller('RTECtrl', function ($scope) {
            $scope.tools = { edit: ["findAndReplace"] };          
        });
        
    </script>
