Here is my problem. Prior to adding the Web Wiz Rich Text Editor to my ASP page, I had an onblur javascript event associated with my <textarea>. Now that I add the Web Wiz Rich Text Editor to my asp page, the event no longer fires even though it IS set (I do a View Source from within my IE 6.0.

Does anyone have a solution?

The RTE actually uses JavaScript to replace your textarea with an IFrame of the same dimensions which it lies directly over the top of your textarea covering your textarea up.

This more than likly prevents your onblur event from working.

You could try editing the RTE_javascript.asp file and fiind the part of the code that creates the IFrame, then try adding your onBlur event to the the IFrames body.
