How to include WMD Editor in my website?
I know this might seem a simple question, but with all the WMD versions out there, I need t开发者_开发知识库o know how to include WMD Editor in my website, and is there a server control to include in server-side or there is only WMD classes to manage and sanitize input content?
I recently wrote an article in my blog with a simple discussion on how to get derobins wmd editor (same one as the SO wmd editor) in your web site: http://codesprout.blogspot.com/2011/03/wysiwyg-derobins-wmd-markdown-editor-in.html In my blog I provide the links for downloading the latest WMD editor, the instructions and a test page provided with the WMD download.
Installation
The installation instructions were quite good, so the installation went without a hitch!
Usage
I found it useful to muck with the wmd test page a little, just to get a feel for the editor (which should be pretty familiar to people who are already familiar with StackOverflow).
Implementation
Suppose you've already added/merged the wmd style sheet to your web site's style sheet, now you just need to add the proper references in your master page, create a partial view with the wmd editor, and finally display the partial view on a page of your choice.
Step 1: Follow the installation instructions for wmd. The installation are in the readme file of the wmd download.
Step 2: Create a partial view for the editor (I called mine MarkdownControl).
<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<dynamic>" %>
<div id="wmd-editor" class="wmd-panel">
<div id="wmd-button-bar"></div>
<textarea id="wmd-input"></textarea>
</div>
<div id="wmd-preview" class="wmd-panel"></div>
Step 3: Display the control in a page of your choice:
<% Html.RenderPartial("MarkdownControl"); %>
And there you have it: a WYSIWYG editor in a partial view which you can display anywhere on your web site! You can see my implementation in action here: www.mydevarmy.com/Competition/Propose
