Free Online Web-Based WYSIWYG HTML Editor JavaScripts
Embed a HTML editor or a WYSIWYG web editor into your web site free of charge with the JavaScript code listed on this page. These scripts allow you to place an editor that allows your visitor to either create and edit HTML code using a WYSIWYG web interface or simply just write rich text with bold, underline, italics, font changes, etc, using a web interface. It is useful if you are creating an online application that requires the use of an online editor but don't want to spend a lot of time rolling your own.
You should note carefully the supported browsers for each of these scripts before deploying them, since some of them only support Internet Explorer ("IE"). In this age where IE is no longer always the majority browser in use, support for other browsers like Opera, Firefox, Chrome and Safari may be important for your site, depending on your site's demographics.
Important: if you are looking for a web editor to create your own website, you're on the wrong page. Please check the Free HTML Editors and WYSIWYG Web Editors page instead. You should also read the How to Make a Website: The Beginner's A-Z Guide which takes you through all the steps of creating a website.
