WebHtmlEditor Loses value on postback
posted

I have a WebHtmlEditor in a contentpage, when I 1st load the page this is the html for WebHtmlEditor:

<DIV style="WIDTH: 100%; FONT-FAMILY: sans-serif; HEIGHT: 100%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; layout: layout-grid: both fixed 12px 12px" id=ctl00_ctl00_cphBody_cphBody_fvHardship_tabsItems_tabHardInfo_AdditionalInformationLabel_tw contentEditable=true align=left _oldE="true" content="false">
<P>test add some more text and some more</P>
<P>and more</P></DIV>

After I do a postback the text is gone and the html changes to:

<DIV style="WIDTH: 100%; FONT-FAMILY: sans-serif; HEIGHT: 100%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" id=ctl00_ctl00_cphBody_cphBody_fvHardship_tabsItems_tabHardInfo_AdditionalInformationLabel_tw align=left></DIV>

<input name="ctl00_ctl00_cphBody_cphBody_fvHardship_tabsItems_tabHardInfo_AdditionalInformationLabel_t_a" id="ctl00_ctl00_cphBody_cphBody_fvHardship_tabsItems_tabHardInfo_AdditionalInformationLabel_t_a" type="hidden" value="%3CP%3Etest add some more text and some more%3C/P%3E
%3CP%3Eand more%3C/P%3E"/>

Notice the <p> are gone, now if I do a refresh the text is back.....Any help is appreciated.

    I believe that this is the same bug that we are experiencing, could infragistics please comment on this? 

    I have never been able to reproduce the issue in neither our test nor production-environment, but a journalist working in the company says that the error occurs about 20% of the time. He also says that if he copies his changes once more into the text field and clicks save, it works as it is supposed to.

    After going through the code line for line the only plausible explanation for this behaviour is that the TextXHtml property of our WebHtmlEditor sometimes (but not always) doesn't return the new value.

    Our journalist is using FireFox, version 3.5.3.

    Is this a known bug. Has it been fixed? We are using version 9.1 of the infragistics components.

    Cheers, Johan

    Did you ever figure out this problem. I have the same issue after upgrading from version 6.1 to version 9.1 of the components. The text is not displayed, and even if hte readonly property is set to false, it's not possible to edit.
