I have the RTE working fine. It submits to a new page on my site. However, if a refresh the page or come back to it later it is lost. The data goes and I'm replaced with "There's nothing to Display" Any ideas?
Thanks

That is correct and is a limitation of the tools required to make the RTE work with the browsers own built in RTE API

Rich Text enabled browsers have their own built in Rich Text Editing (RTE) features. You turn on the API in a web browser by enabling design mode, which makes the whole page editable, you can then send commands to the browser to control things like Bold, Italic, inserting images etc. but it is the browser itself that produces the HTML code to display this. At the moment only IE (windows only), Mozilla, Firefox, and Opera support RTE, but all their implementations are all very different, quite buggy, and not full featured, so a number of workarounds have to be used to attempt to get around these limitations and bugs. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

But I use IE6 and this should work OK right?
Is there something else wrong?

If you come back to a form later than of course your data is lost, the browser can't cache your form input even IE.
