# Simple Editor

The are two ways to use Rich Text Editor. First, it can be created from an ordinary html textarea, providing an easy way to initialize the data and save it back to the textarea. This way you do can use your current existing forms to commit the data to the server side.
Second, it can be used as a stand alone editor. If you implement the editor in the stand alone way you need to pass HTML to it and get HTML from it before you call form submit. The example below shows how to use the Rich Text Editor in a stand alone way.
