How to get/convert formatted html of iframe into plain text?
Question
I created an iframe into which I can post formatted text (from a Word document for example) and receive it as html. Is it possible to also recieve the unformatted version (without the html tags), such as created when copying formatted text into a textarea?
My code for logging the html of formatted text:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
<title>Document</title>
<script>
window.addEventListener("load", function () {
var editor = theWYSIWYG.document;
editor.designMode = 'on';
action.addEventListener('click', function() {
var formattedHTML = editor.body.innerHTML
console.log(formattedHTML);
}, false)
}, false)
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="textEditor">
<button id="action" title="Bold"><b>Click me</b></button>
<div id="richTextArea"></div>
<iframe id="theWYSIWYG" name="theWYSIWYG" frameborder="0"></iframe>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Technically I could ask the user to also paste the formatted text into a seperate textarea box, but I would prefer to do it in a single time.
Thanks in advance

Try this var text = editor.body.innerText || editor.body.textContent; var text = editor.body.innerText || editor.body.textContent;
