In my application, there is a textarea and I've used CK Editor for it. Now I want to check whether user has input something to it (except whitespace). There were some methods for this. But nothing worked for me. It throws an undefined error when I use it.
Textarea
<div class="form-group {{ $errors->has('template_content') ? 'has-error' : '' }}">
{{ Form::label('template_content', 'Template Content') }}
{{ Form::textarea('template_content', null, array('class' => 'form-control', 'id' => 'editor1',
'name' => 'editor1', 'required', 'data-error="Template content is required"', 'id' =>
'templateContent')) }}
{!! $errors->first('template_content', '<span class="help-block">:message</span>') !!}
<div class="help-block with-errors"></div>
</div>
JS Function
var a = CKEDITOR.instances["editor1"].getData();
if (a == '') {
//code to execute
} else {
//code to execute
}
Error
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getData' of undefined
First
{{ Form::textarea('template_content', null, array('class' => 'form-control', 'id' => 'editor1',
'name' => 'editor1', 'required', 'data-error="Template content is required"', 'id' =>
'templateContent')) }}
here you have two id
s, your textarea id is templateContent. remove 'id' => 'templateContent'
Second, this is not a watcher!, it's not going to update you realtime. you need to trigger it somehow, for example
<button id="test">get data</button>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#test").click(function() {
var a = CKEDITOR.instances["editor1"].getData();
console.log(a);
});
});
Click the button and check the console.
