23 This sample shows how to automatically replace <code><textarea></code> elements
24 with a CKEditor instance with an option to change the language of its user interface.
27 It pulls the language list from CKEditor <code>_languages.js</code> file that contains the list of supported languages and creates
28 a drop-down list that lets the user change the UI language.
31 By default, CKEditor automatically localizes the editor to the language of the user.
32 The UI language can be controlled with two configuration options:
33 <code><a class="samples" href="http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.config-cfg-language">language</a></code> and
34 <code><a class="samples" href="http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.config-cfg-defaultLanguage">
35 defaultLanguage</a></code>. The <code>defaultLanguage</code> setting specifies the
36 default CKEditor language to be used when a localization suitable for user's settings is not available.
39 To specify the user interface language that will be used no matter what language is
40 specified in user's browser or operating system, set the <code>language</code> property:
43 CKEDITOR.replace( '<em>textarea_id</em>', {
44 // Load the German interface.
45 <strong>language: 'de'</strong>
48 Note that <code><em>textarea_id</em></code> in the code above is the <code>id</code> attribute of
49 the <code><textarea></code> element to be replaced.
52 <form action="sample_posteddata.php" method="post">
54 Available languages (<span id="count"> </span> languages!):<br>
57 document.write( '<select disabled="disabled" id="languages" onchange="createEditor( this.value );">' );
59 // Get the language list from the _languages.js file.
60 for ( var i = 0 ; i < window.CKEDITOR_LANGS.length ; i++ ) {
62 '<option value="' + window.CKEDITOR_LANGS[i].code + '">' +
63 window.CKEDITOR_LANGS[i].name +
67 document.write( '</select>' );
71 <span style="color: #888888">
72 (You may see strange characters if your system does not support the selected language)
76 <textarea cols="80" id="editor1" name="editor1" rows="10"><p>This is some <strong>sample text</strong>. You are using <a href="http://ckeditor.com/">CKEditor</a>.</p></textarea>
79 // Set the number of languages.
80 document.getElementById( 'count' ).innerHTML = window.CKEDITOR_LANGS.length;
84 function createEditor( languageCode ) {
88 // Replace the <textarea id="editor"> with an CKEditor
89 // instance, using default configurations.
90 editor = CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor1', {
91 language: languageCode,
94 instanceReady: function() {
95 // Wait for the editor to be ready to set
96 // the language combo.
97 var languages = document.getElementById( 'languages' );
98 languages.value = this.langCode;
99 languages.disabled = false;
105 // At page startup, load the default language:
