Implements the richtext widget, which offers rich text editing options. If the acs-templating.UseHtmlAreaForRichtextP parameter is set to true (1), this will use the htmlArea WYSIWYG editor widget. Otherwise, it will use a normal textarea, with a drop-down to select a format. The available formats are:

• Enhanced text = Allows HTML, but automatically inserts line and paragraph breaks.
• Plain text = Automatically inserts line and paragraph breaks, and quotes all HTML-specific characters, such as less-than, greater-than, etc.
• Fixed-width text = Same as plain text, but conserves spacing; useful for tabular data.
• HTML = normal HTML.

Parameters:

element_reference (required)

tag_attributes (required)
