When a page with Obout Editor component is loaded, client-side Editor object is available. You can get it:

      var editorObject = oboutGetEditor("editor");

      "editor" here is the Obout Editor component Id you used in your ASPX page.

User can define a function that will be executed on Editor load. This function should have name EditorOnLoad.

   function EditorOnLoad(editor)
   {
     editor.chMode("text");  // set initial HTML text mode
   }

User can also define a function for Submit validation. This function should have name EditorOnSubmit and return true on success or false on fail. Editor's content will not be submited if this function returns false.

   function EditorOnSubmit(editor)
   {
     if(editor.getContent().length > 1000)
     {
       setTimeout(function(){alert("Content's length is more than 1000 characters!");},0);
       return false;
     }
     return true;
   }

Another example of EditorOnSubmit function use. It calls spell checker, and submits if OK was clicked.

   function EditorOnSubmit(editor)
   {
     function checkResult(ok)
     {
       if(ok) editor.submit(); 
     }
     editor.spellCheck(checkResult);
     return false;
   }
