)

Remarks

Note that when you call the GetHtml method, it calls the GetHtml(name, htmlEditingSettings, validationSettings, validationDelegate, isValid) overload method with unspecified default parameters. For instance, the default htmlEditingSettings object (ASPxHtmlEditorSettings) prohibits form elements, IFrames, and scripts, so the GetHtml method returns the HTML markup without these elements.

If you wish to change the default behavior, e.g. to allow scripts, call the overloaded method as follows:

ASPxHtmlEditorHtmlEditingSettings editingSettings = new ASPxHtmlEditorHtmlEditingSettings();
editingSettings.AllowScripts = true;
string htmlString = HtmlEditorExtension.GetHtml("heName", editingSettings);
