CKEditor Samples » Using textselection Plugin

This sample shows how to configure CKEditor instances to use the textselection (textselection) plugin that makes the editor keep it's text-selection when switching between WYSIWYG and Source mode, and scrolls the selection into the viewport.

To add a CKEditor instance using the textselection plugin, insert the following JavaScript call to your code:

CKEDITOR.replace( 'textarea_id', {
	extraPlugins: 'textselection',
});

Note that textarea_id in the code above is the id attribute of the <textarea> element to be replaced with CKEditor.
