tiny mce and ajax4jsf
I'm using facelets and myfaces (1.1.5-SNAPSHOT). I use the tiny mce editor
for formatted text. Recently I tried adding ajax4jsf to certain pages.
This works great for plain textareas, but when the text area is a tiny mce
one, it doesn't work.
I know this is pretty specific, but I'm hoping somebody tried the same and
can get it to work. Its not absolutely required, but I'd like to have the
formatted text and the ajax.
Thanks in advance,
-kevin

Its in the wiki. Pretty simple, actually...

Just add the tiny mce code to your webapp, then on the page add the ' tinyMCE.init' function. It wraps itself onto standard textarea's.

Hi,
I have a similar problem but using t:inputHtml control. When it is used with ajax4jsf it does not work... the value from bean is not shown in the control and if editing something into it and submit, the value does not get to server.
Is there a tiny mce control in myfaces? Where can I find this control?
I will try to find such a triggerSave method for t:inputHtml.
Alin.
After you email I tried posting to ajax4jsf. I'm not sure if it went through.
However, I dug around the code for tinymce and figured out a way to do it, which I'll share in case anybody has the same issue.
I figured the reason was that tinymce isn't actually modifying the textarea's data when you edit it and might be attaching something to the form's onsubmit event to save the value. I'm not 100% of the mechanism, but it appears to be something like that.
I added the following the ajax4jsf command button...
onclick="tinyMCE.triggerSave()"
This appears to save the formatted value to the textarea, which is then sent to server. Now the formatted text shows up.
In case anybody with tinymce experience knows what triggerSave does, and its a bad thing, please let me know.

After you email I tried posting to ajax4jsf. I'm not sure if it went
through.
However, I dug around the code for tinymce and figured out a way to do it,
which I'll share in case anybody has the same issue.
I figured the reason was that tinymce isn't actually modifying the
textarea's data when you edit it and might be attaching something to the
form's onsubmit event to save the value. I'm not 100% of the mechanism, but
it appears to be something like that.
I added the following the ajax4jsf command button...
onclick="tinyMCE.triggerSave()"
This appears to save the formatted value to the textarea, which is then sent
to server. Now the formatted text shows up.
In case anybody with tinymce experience knows what triggerSave does, and its
a bad thing, please let me know.

Kevin,
You might try asking this on the Ajax4jsf mailing list or the tinymce
forum... unless you already sent it to the ajax list, and I just haven't
gotten it yet? :)
