Pre Loading Content

Hi,

I'm 'converting' from Kevin Roth's RTE to Xinha and need a little help to sort my code out! I need to load content into Xinha for users to edit.  How do I do this? I couldn't see anything obvious in the documentation.

TIA

Huw

Re: Pre Loading Content

Q: How do I set the content of the editor?

    * A: To set the initial editor content, simply put the entized HTML into the initial textarea
    * A: To set the content dynamically by Javascript, use the editor.setEditorContent(html) method

Re: Pre Loading Content

Hmmmm. I tried setting the text area value but it didn't work for me :-(

<div>
<textarea id="myTextArea" name="myTextArea" rows="25" cols="50" style="width: 800px; height:500px">Is my text here</textarea>
</div>

When I load the page the Xinha text area is blank. Strange. I'll try the JS method tomorrow.

Thanks for the help.

Re: Pre Loading Content

But today that exact code works ..... !!!! Very strange. I'm guessing that the success today has something to do with me opening and closing the browser. Yesterday I was just refreshing. Does Xinha cache content at all?  ... nothing else makes sense!
