 Always use an associated input element to safely populate an editor. Trix won’t load any HTML content inside a `<trix-editor>…</trix-editor>` tag.
 
-## Disabling the Editor
-
-To disable the `<trix-editor>`, render it with the `[disabled]` attribute:
-
-```html
-<trix-editor disabled></trix-editor>
-```
-
-Disabled editors are not editable, cannot receive focus, and their values will
-be ignored when their related `<form>` element is submitted.
-
-To change whether or not an editor is disabled, either toggle the `[disabled]`
-attribute or assign a boolean to the `.disabled` property:
-
-```html
-<trix-editor id="editor" disabled></trix-editor>
-
-<script>
-  const editor = document.getElementById("editor")
-
-  editor.toggleAttribute("disabled", false)
-  editor.disabled = true
-</script>
-```
-
-When disabled, the editor will match the [:disabled CSS
-pseudo-class][:disabled].
-
-[:disabled]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:disabled
-
-## Providing an Accessible Name
-
-Like other form controls, `<trix-editor>` elements should have an accessible name. The `<trix-editor>` element integrates with `<label>` elements and The `<trix-editor>` supports two styles of integrating with `<label>` elements:
-
-1. render the `<trix-editor>` element with an `[id]` attribute that the `<label>` element references through its `[for]` attribute:
-
-```html
-<label for="editor">Editor</label>
-<trix-editor id="editor"></trix-editor>
-```
-
-2. render the `<trix-editor>` element as a child of the `<label>` element:
-
-```html
-<trix-toolbar id="editor-toolbar"></trix-toolbar>
-<label>
-  Editor
-
-  <trix-editor toolbar="editor-toolbar"></trix-editor>
-</label>
-```
-
-> [!WARNING]
-> When rendering the `<trix-editor>` element as a child of the `<label>` element, [explicitly render](#creating-an-editor) the corresponding `<trix-toolbar>` element outside of the `<label>` element.
-
-In addition to integrating with `<label>` elements, `<trix-editor>` elements support `[aria-label]` and `[aria-labelledby]` attributes.
-
 ## Styling Formatted Content
 
 To ensure what you see when you edit is what you see when you save, use a CSS class name to scope styles for Trix formatted content. Apply this class name to your `<trix-editor>` element, and to a containing element when you render stored Trix content for display in your application.
