Match the style of element while performing paste

Match the style of

 element while performing paste - jQuery?

jQuery Web Development Front End Technology

For this, use <pre> tag. Set it to contenteditable −

<pre id="data" contenteditable></pre>

We have set the following style for paste −

<style>
   pre {
      min-height: 150px;
      min-width: 300px;
      font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;
      white-space: pre;
      background-color: rgb(19, 22, 27);
      color: #98d8e7;
   }
</style>

Now, you can use paste event listener −

var getTheData = document.getElementById('data');
getTheData.addEventListener('paste', PutTheDataOnEditor);
