Hi. I am developing a sort of Wiki, where I put a rich text editor.

The data which the rich text editor generates is of course is a form
of html, and it looks like,

<iframe ...
#document
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC ...>
<html xmlns=...
<head ...
<body ...
...
</html>

I believe I need to obtain the entire html part to make persistent in
datastore.

My question is how do you think I should get the value?

Certainly there are many ways but I need an efficient way.

Should I use jQuery to pass the part starting from "#document" ?
Of should I get it directly using Python?

I wonder how I can take advantage of the "#document" marker,
indicating the html content.

thanks in advance

nearly every WYSIWYG/rich text editor I have used, automatically puts
the raw html from the editor into a hidden textarea.

ie the server application, just recieves the posted form, just the
same as if it was a text area.

No need for messing with jquery.

Check the documentation for the rich text editor you are using.
