Unable to write into Rich Text Area
Hi,
In our application there are few text areas which sahi does not detects
The backend code uses some JavaScript library to format the text within the text areas.. It generates and stores html tags within the content of the textarea and it is not an Iframe.
We tried using _rteWrite(_rte(0), "text") and though it places the text in that text area, our application is not recognizing the notes entered. But when we place the mouse pointer into the text area then its working fine.
Can someone suggest what needs to be done.
Thank you
Regards,
Bhavitha

_focus(_rte(0))
_rteWrite(_rte(0), "text")
or
_rteWrite(_rte(0), "text")
_focus(_rte(0))
and see. If not use
_click instead of _focus.

I tried with both _focus and _click, but it did not work
when i tried using _rteText() to read contents, the log showed error as :_sahi.setServerVar('___lastValue___1295521931507', _rteText());
TypeError: 'this.iframeFromStr(...).contentWindow' is null or not an object
Can you point us to a sample page where we can check and rectify this?
How are you using _rteText?

Narayan
