CSS: :focus of elements within contenteditable

2019-01-14 08:25发布

If you have the following HTML:

<div contenteditable="true">
  <p>The first paragraph</p>
  <p>The second paragraph</p>
</div>

Is there a way to style the paragraph that is being edited differently from all other paragraphs in the div that is contenteditable?

div > p:focus { border: 1px solid red }

won't be applied to the paragraph being edited.

Here's a JSFiddle you can play with.

How can I style the paragraph being edited (the <p>-tag) differently?

I'd prefer a CSS-only solution, but perhaps I'll have to use JavaScript.

EDIT:

Since we could not find a pure CSS solution (and using :hover is not a real solution for me) I am now looking for some lines of JavaScript that set the attribute class="focus" on the node that is being edited.

I think I found a solution.

With the following code snippet you can get the parent element at the current caret position when the selection changes.

var selectedElement = null;
function setFocus(e) {
  if (selectedElement)
    selectedElement.style.outline = 'none';

  selectedElement = window.getSelection().focusNode.parentNode;
  // walk up the DOM tree until the parent node is contentEditable
  while (selectedElement.parentNode.contentEditable != 'true') {
    selectedElement = selectedElement.parentNode;
  }
  selectedElement.style.outline = '1px solid #f00';
};
document.onkeyup = setFocus;
document.onmouseup = setFocus;

Here I change the outline property manually but you could of course add a class attribute and set the style via CSS.

You still have to manually check if selectedElement is a child of our <div> with the contenteditable attribute. But I think you can get the basic idea.

Here's the updated JSFiddle.

EDIT: I updated the code as well as the JSFiddle to make it work in Firefox and Internet Explorer 9+, too. Unfortunately these Browsers do not have a onselectionchange event handler, so I had to use onkeyup and onmouseup.

jsFiddle here.

The following is imperfect in the sense that your mouse will need to be in the same area as the selected paragraph (to keep the :hover argument true), but as this will usually be the case anyway this should be fine - it's the best you're going to get if you want to keep your markup as it is anyway:

CSS:

div[contenteditable="true"]:focus > p:hover {
   border: 2px solid red;
}

HTML:

<div contenteditable="true">
   <p>The first paragraph</p>
   <p>The second paragraph</p>
</div>

jsFiddle here.

If you're able to change the markup, you can use the following simplified selector:

CSS:

p[contenteditable="true"]:focus {
   border: 2px solid red;
}

HTML:

<div>
   <p contenteditable="true">The first paragraph</p>
   <p contenteditable="true">The second paragraph</p>
</div>

Interesting question. If it's viable, I'd suggest moving the contenteditable attribute to the ps themselves: http://codepen.io/pageaffairs/pen/FHKAC

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">

<style media="all">

div > p:focus {outline: 1px solid red; }

</style>

</head>
<body>

<div>
    <p contenteditable="true">The first paragraph</p>
    <p contenteditable="true">The second paragraph</p>
</div>

</body>
</html>

EDIT: Here is another version, that causes para returns to generate paras instead of divs: http://codepen.io/pageaffairs/pen/dbyIa

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">

<style media="all">

div:focus {outline: none;}
div > p:focus, div > p:hover {outline: 1px solid red; }

</style>

</head>
<body>

<div contenteditable="true">
    <p contenteditable="true">The first paragraph</p>
    <p contenteditable="true">The second paragraph</p>
</div>

</body>
</html>
