Integration in EJ2 TypeScript In place editor control
19 Apr 20233 minutes to read
The In-place Editor supports adding HTML5 input controls using the template property. The Template property can be given as either a string
or a query selector
.
As a string
The HTML element tag can be given as a string for the template property. Here, the input is rendered as an HTML template.
template: "<div><input type='text' id='name'></input></div>"
As a selector
The template property also allows getting template content through query selector
. Here, the input wrapper element ‘ID’ attribute is specified in the template.
template: "#date"
Template mode, the value
property not handled by the In-place Editor control. So, before sending a value to the server, you need to modify at actionBegin event, otherwise, an empty string will pass. In the following template sample, before submitting a data to the server, event argument and value property content updated in the actionBegin
event handler.
import { InPlaceEditor, ActionBeginEventArgs } from '@syncfusion/ej2-inplace-editor';
let editObj: InPlaceEditor = new InPlaceEditor({
mode: 'Inline',
template: '#date',
value: '2018-05-23',
actionBegin: function(e: ActionBeginEventArgs): void {
let value: string = (<HTMLInputElement>editObj.element.querySelector('#date')).value;
editObj.value = value;
e.value = value;
}
});
editObj.appendTo('#element');
