Methods

 
 EditorKeyPress consumes a keyevent.
 @param aKeyEvent    key event to consume

[noscript] void handleKeyPress(in nsIDOMKeyEvent aKeyEvent)

 Insert a line break into the content model.
 The interpretation of a break is up to the implementation:
 it may enter a character, split a node in the tree, etc.
 This may be more efficient than calling InsertText with a newline.

void insertLineBreak()

 Inserts a string at the current location,
 given by the selection.
 If the selection is not collapsed, the selection is deleted
 and the insertion takes place at the resulting collapsed selection.

 @param aString   the string to be inserted

void insertText(in DOMString aStringToInsert)
