Using document.createElement to implement an image handler in React-Quill can lead to unexpected bugs.
A significant issue is that the upload function fails to update with dynamically changing props or states. Once created, the function does not adapt to reflect updates in the component's props or state.
To address these issues, it's recommended to use React's useRef to reference the file input tag. This approach allows for managing DOM elements within React, thereby preventing synchronization issues between React's virtual DOM and the actual DOM. Here's a simplified example of how this can be implemented.
