Capture ctrl+s to update the value
26 Oct 20223 minutes to read
To achieve this, we need to bind the keydown
event to the Rich Text Editor content and capture the ctrl + s
key press using its keyCode
.
In the keydown
event handler, the updateValue
method is called to update the value
property and then we can save the content in the required database using the same.
<ejs-richtexteditor id="saveContent" Created="onCreate">
<e-content-template>
<p>
The Rich Text Editor control is WYSIWYG ('what you see is what you get') editor that provides the best user experience to create and update the content.
Users can format their content using standard toolbar commands.

rteObj.contentModule.getDocument().addEventListener("keydown", function (e) {
if (e.key === 's' && e.ctrlKey === true) {
