Hi, I have a licenced copy of the webwiz text editor which I have to say is great. I have one enquiry though. I am directly inputting to my database. On the webpage that views the content, I need to use asp.... if isblank(() etc. The only trouble is that the text editor enters in the text field by default <P> </P> so I cannot have an empty database field so cannot use if is blank. Is there a way to stop that happening.
Thanks for any help.
Richard

The ASP code below is what we use in Web Wiz Forums to detect using ASP if the text editor is blank:-
If Trim(strMessage) = "" OR Trim(strMessage) = "<P> </P>" OR Trim(strMessage) = "<br>" OR Trim(strMessage) = "<br>" & vbCrLf Then
The text atrea content is placed in the variable strMessage, you would want to change this to your own variable name.
Many browser auto fill the editor with different content, such as <P> </P>, the code above tests for all variations of this.
