Hi,

I have a form with a WebHTMLEditor in a ASP.net application . I wish to change the content that is in this control depend of a select control, all by javascript because I don´t want reload the page.

With javascript I change the value of the WebHTMLEditor by his property innerText and innerHTML. The problem come with the buttons bold, italic, underline..., when I change innerHTML, they dont fire, and if I want add an image then shows a error message that I dont have permissions

How can I change the value of the WebHTMLEditor with javascript?

thanks,
Ruizma

 Hello Ruizma,

Thanks for writing and for your interest in our products. Our products employ a slightly different approach when using Javascript - we have what we call CSOM - Client Side Object Model. This way, you can get the instance of the editor and use the set/getText methods to do that.

For example: 

var oEditor = iged_getById(editorId);
if (oEditor)
    oEditor.setText( cleanXhtml( oEditor.getText() ) );

A very good forum topic, where one of our customers has managed to create a client-side javascript XHTML filter and shared his solution with us, is located here:
