thanks in advance

Answer 1

Here is a helpful jQuery solution that I use with nicEdit:

jQuery('.nicEdit-main').attr('contenteditable','false');
jQuery('.nicEdit-panel').hide();

You can simply change it back to 'true' to make it editable again.

Note: I would consider toggling the div background-color along with this solution.

Answer 2

finally the solution is

var myNicEditor = new nicEditor(); myNicEditor.addInstance('templateContent'); nicEditors.findEditor("templateContent").disable();

Answer 3

With the statement nicEditors.findEditor("TextArea").disable(); niceditor is non editable But

nicEditors.findEditor("TextArea").attr("contentEditable","true");

does not make it editable again

Answer 4

for me only this worked:

document.getElementsByClassName('nicEdit-main')[0].removeAttribute('contentEditable');
