I am using JQuery Text Editor - jqueryte.com for providing users with a simple, light weight rich text editor. On the back end I am using PHP, specifically CakePHP 3
Everything works well for the most part. However, I noticed that sometimes when I copy text from websites and paste it in the text editor it saves it verbatim with all the HTML tags. Not that this is bad, but certain tags like <p> and <div> are causing issues while displaying the content.
So far, I have come up with the following remediation choices
Use javascript / PHP to strip select tags before save - however this may interfere with the display of information as it would remove indentation etc
Switch over to an alternate text editor like CKEditor - I noticed that they have replacement rules in their configuration options. I would like this to be a last resort, also if anyone has any experience in configuring CKEditor, I would appreciate insight
Any other suggestions, options I may not have considered? Help is much appreciated...
