Namespace: DevExpress.Web.Mvc

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.Mvc5.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public static string GetHtml(
    string name
)

VB.NET

Public Shared Function GetHtml(
    name As String
) As String

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
name	String	A string value that specifies the HtmlEditor’s name (SettingsBase.Name).

Returns

Type	Description
String	A string value specifying the editor’s HTML markup.

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:

C#

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