Scripting	object .contentEditable (v ) [ =  sCanEdit ]

Possible Values

String that specifies or receives one of the following values. inherit Default. Content's ability to be edited by user is inherited from object's parent. false Content cannot be edited by the user. true Content can be edited by the user.

The property is read/write. The property has a default value of inherit .

Remarks

Child elements do not inherit this attribute unless they have layout. Use the hasLayout property to determine if an object has layout.

 

If this attribute is applied to a BODY element, it has the same effect as setting the designMode property of the document object.

 

Elements with the disabled attribute set to false do not respond to the contentEditable attribute.

If this attribute is applied to the A element, the default functionality of the A element will be lost while sCanEdit is set to the value of true .

 

If this attribute is applied to the MARQUEE element, the default functionality of the MARQUEE element will be lost while sCanEdit is set to the value of true .

 

Though the TABLE, COL, COLGROUP, TBODY, TD, TFOOT, TH, THEAD, and TR elements cannot be set as content editable directly, a content editable SPAN, or DIV element can be placed inside the individual table cells (TD and TH elements). See the example below.

 

Security Alert   Users can change the contents of a Web page when the contentEditable property is set to TRUE. Using this property incorrectly can compromise the security of your application. Incorrect use of the contentEditable property might include not validating user input. If you do not validate user input, a malicious user can inject control characters or script that can harm your data. You should take routine precautions against displaying unvalidated user input.
