freshereditor is an html editor built base on the jQuery ContentEditable plugin with the following improvements:
-
plugin automatically builds toolbar, have option to specify buttons to hide (see example)
-
supports text alignment
-
supports font size and name selection
-
supports foreground and background selection with built-in color picker (using farbtastic color picker plugin)
-
minor rewrite to make code less redundant since lots of command have the form: document.execCommand(cmd, false, null);
-
uses Twitter’s bootstrap.css
