Here is a simple test code - even this does not work - the toolbars are separated from the textarea. What am I doing wrong?
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<%
response.expires=-1 'Declare the ASP variables used
Dim strFormName Dim strTextAreaName 'ID tag name of the HTML form the textarea is within
strFormName = "input" 'ID tag name of HTML textarea being replaced
strTextAreaName = "text" %> <!--#include file="RTE_editor_inc.asp" --> <HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <TITLE>Site Manager</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY onLoad="initialiseWebWizRTE();">
<BR><BR><BR><BR>
<FORM ACTION="test.asp" METHOD="post" NAME="input" ID="input">
<TEXTAREA COLS="80" ROWS="10" NAME="text" ID="text"><%=request.form("text")%></TEXTAREA> <INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="submit" ID="submit" VALUe="submit"> </FORM> </BODY>

Anybody reading this?
In addition I have even a bigger problem as the data submitted by the form arrives null? i.e. request.form("text") is null?
What is strange is that the sample app default.asp works fine?? ------------- Adam Baruch http://www.adambaruch.com - www.adambaruch.com |

I've created a special directory to test further.
You can all see the result here:

and see what happens.
I really need help here, please.

Looking at the code for your form it appears to use reserve words for the name and id's within your form. Your form tag should have a name and id like:- name="frmInput" id="frmInput" The same for your textarea which is presently called text. They need to have unique names and id's that would not clash or be reserved words. ------------- 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 |

In had a look in firefox and you test worked fine, which suggests a setup issue usually cousred by naming etc. that courses IE to throw a spanner in the works

I'm sorry but I tested it in Firefox and it behaves exactly the same as in IE - what do you mean it works? See the space between the toolbars and the textarea? Aren't the toolbars supposed to be on top of the textarea? ------------- Adam Baruch http://www.adambaruch.com - www.adambaruch.com |

Oh well I guess I'll have to move on.... I did try for 2 days, something that should have taken 5 minutes....
A pity as this does look nice, but I can't make it work, althought I do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING special and different from anybody else I guess.
Strange that nobody came upon these problems earlier? ------------- Adam Baruch http://www.adambaruch.com - www.adambaruch.com |
