//---------------------------------------------------------------------
// GENERAL PATTERN
//
// 1. Instantitate an editor object.
// 2. Register plugins (note, it's required to have them loaded).
// 3. Configure any other items in editor.config.
// 4. generate() the editor
//
// The above are steps that you use to create one editor. Nothing new
// so far. In order to create more than one editor, you just have to
// repeat those steps for each of one. Of course, you can register any
// plugins you want (no need to register the same plugins for all
// editors, and to demonstrate that we'll skip the TableOperations
// plugin for the second editor). Just be careful to pass different
// ID-s in the constructor (you don't want to _even try_ to create more
// editors for the same TEXTAREA element ;-)).
//
// So much for the noise, see the action below.
//---------------------------------------------------------------------
//---------------------------------------------------------------------
// CREATE FIRST EDITOR
//
var editor1 = new HTMLArea("text-area-1");
// plugins must be registered _per editor_. Therefore, we register
// plugins for the first editor here, and we will also do this for the
// second editor.
editor1.registerPlugin(TableOperations);
editor1.registerPlugin(SpellChecker);
editor1.registerPlugin(CSS, css_plugin_args);
// custom config must be done per editor. Here we're importing the
// stylesheet used by the CSS plugin.
editor1.config.pageStyle = "@import url(custom.css);";
// generate first editor
editor1.generate();
//---------------------------------------------------------------------
//---------------------------------------------------------------------
// CREATE SECOND EDITOR
//
var editor2 = new HTMLArea("text-area-2");
// we are using the same plugins
editor2.registerPlugin(TableOperations);
editor2.registerPlugin(SpellChecker);
editor2.registerPlugin(CSS, css_plugin_args);
// import the CSS plugin styles
editor2.config.pageStyle = "@import url(custom.css);";
// generate the second editor
// IMPORTANT: if we don't give it a timeout, the first editor will
// not function in Mozilla. Soon I'll think about starting to
// implement some kind of event that will fire when the editor
// finished creating, then we'll be able to chain the generate()
// calls in an elegant way. But right now there's no other solution
// than the following.
setTimeout(function() {
editor2.generate();
}, 500);
