	Hello, I want to see if there's any "real" content in the textarea before submitting, is there any way to do it ?? I tried this, but the textarea is returning some HTML code... =( if(document.form.textarea.replace(/^\s\|\s*$/g,"") == "") { alert("Type a message!"); return false; }

	Gecko based browsers place in a <br> for some reason when empty. I use the following on this forum that may need to be adapted:- //For Gecko Madis API (RTE) if (document.frmAddMessage.message.value.indexOf('<br>') > -1 && document.frmAddMessage.message.value.length == 8) document.frmAddMessage.message.value = '';
