Tested on Chrome / FF / IE11

There is a Chrome/IE annoyance which is that these browsers add

element for each new line. There is a post about this here and it can be fixed by setting the contenteditable element to be display:inline-block

Select some highlighted HTML and paste it here:

function onPaste(e){
  var content;
  e.preventDefault();

  if( e.clipboardData ){
    content = e.clipboardData.getData('text/plain');
    document.execCommand('insertText', false, content);
    return false;
  }
  else if( window.clipboardData ){
    content = window.clipboardData.getData('Text');
    if (window.getSelection)
      window.getSelection().getRangeAt(0).insertNode( document.createTextNode(content) );
  }
}


/////// EVENT BINDING /////////
document.querySelector('[contenteditable]').addEventListener('paste', onPaste);

[contenteditable]{ 
  /* chroem bug: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24689420/104380 */
  display:inline-block;
  width: calc(100% - 40px);
  min-height:120px; 
  margin:10px;
  padding:10px;
  border:1px dashed green;
}

/* 
 mark HTML inside the "contenteditable"  
 (Shouldn't be any OFC!)'
*/
[contenteditable] *{
  background-color:red;
}
