content_language

The content_language option sets the default content language of the editor by applying a lang attribute to the document element. In classic (iframe) mode, the attribute is set on the <html> element inside the editor’s iframe. In inline mode, the attribute is set on the target element specified in the editor’s selector option.

Setting this option helps meet accessibility standards such as WCAG Success Criterion 3.1.1 (Language of Page), which requires that the default human language of a web page can be programmatically determined.

Note
 This option is separate from the language option, which controls the language of the {productname} user interface. The content_language option controls only the language attribute of the editor content area.

When the Spell Checker plugin is active, it uses content_language as its default proofing language. If content_language is not set, the Spell Checker falls back to spellchecker_language.

Type: String

Default value: Not set (undefined)

Example: using content_language

tinymce.init({
  selector: 'textarea',  // change this value according to your HTML
  content_language: 'fr'
});
