Insert text into the editor

Hi,

I have a combobox with some specialvariables ([site_name], [username], [date] etc...).

Underneath that combobox is my textarea which is Xinha-enabled.

I want to add the combobox.value to the textarea.

Things I tried:
1) I used to add the combox.value to the textarea.value, but that isn't possible anymore.
2) xinha_editors['public_welcome'].insertHTML(combobox.value)
3) I already tried to create a custom plugin which works great, but I need different "specialvariables" for each editor. [username] shouldn't be available in e.g. a public welcome message.

How should I do this ?

Modify your plugin to accept the available variables in the configuration of the editor.

Re: Insert text into the editor

Yes I currently did it by adding

var _extravar = "?"

just underneath my _xinha_lang in my welcome.html.

Thanks for replying though.
