Try this:

JS:

function testdemo() {
   var div = document.getElementById('test');
   div.innerHTML = div.textContent;
}

Jquery:

function testdemo() {
   $('#test').html($('#test').text());
}

Answer 2

jQuery version would be as below:

 function testdemo() { $("#test").html($("#test").text()); } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <button onclick="testdemo();">RUN</button> <div id="test" contenteditable="true"> </div> 

Answer 3

 function testdemo() { var div = document.getElementById('test'); div.innerHTML = div.textContent; } 

 <button onclick="testdemo();">RUN</button> <div id="test" contenteditable="true"> <b>Lorem ipsum</b> dolor sit amet, <span style="color:red;">ea ignota verear</span> quaerendum </div>
