Output Rich Text (Deprecated)

We recommend using Lightning Web Components whenever possible. When migrating to Lightning Web Components, use lightning-formatted-rich-text.

For more information, see Aura Components in the ui Namespace Are Deprecated.

A ui:outputRichText component represents formatted text and can be used to display input from a lightning:inputRichText or ui:inputRichText component. Using lightning:inputRichText is recommended since ui:inputRichText is no longer supported when Lightning Locker is enabled. Similarly, we recommend that you use lightning:formattedRichText instead of ui:outputRichText.

ui:outputRichText renders formatted text. For example, URLs and email addresses enclosed by anchor tags are displayed as hyperlinks.

This example sets bold text and binds the value to a lightning:inputRichText and ui:outputRichText component. The slds-text-longform class adds default spacing and list styling in your output.

During initialization, the value is set on both the lightning:inputRichText and ui:outputRichText component.

ui:outputRichText supports the following HTML tags: a, b, br, big, blockquote, caption, cite, code, col, colgroup, del, div, em, h1, h2, h3, hr, i, img, ins, kbd, li, ol, p, param, pre, q, s, samp, small, span, strong, sub, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, var, strike.
