Re: How to make "Toggle HTML source" out side of the pannel?

If you have followed the NewbieGuide you may have a javascript variable named xinha_editor, let's assume you have it.

Now, let's say the textarea you have transformed was named myprettyarea

<form>
<textarea name="myprettyarea" id="myprettyarea">
</form>

In this case, you can use the javascript variable xinha_editor.myprettyarea. Which means, you can simply do this kind of thing :

<a href="#" onclick="xinha_editor.myprettyarea.setMode(); return false;">Toggle HTML and WYSIWYG</a><br>
<a href="#" onclick="xinha_editor.myprettyarea.setMode('text'); return false;">Set HTML mode</a><br>
<a href="#" onclick="xinha_editor.myprettyarea.setMode('wysiwyg'); return false;">Set WYSIWYG mode</a>
