TinyMCE editor in ExtJs Application Returns Old Value.

Hello,

Finally I got some to add some more interesting blogs. Recently I have faced an issue with TinyMCE editor in ExtJs application. The issue was little wired. We have a TinyMCE editor in ExtJs form panel where it's disabled first. There is a button in form panel which enables. After that if we update any value in TinyMCE editor, it shows on screen but when we get value from form panel, the value of TinyMCE field is always the old one.

After struggling for some hours, I find out the issue. When TinyMCE is disabled, there are no events of active editor. But when we enable it editor should be initialized properly and all the event handlers should be attached. However it's not happening. So what is the solution for it. Change the logic of TinyMCE intilization and add key up event.


setup : function( ed ) {
ed.onKeyUp.add(function(ed) {
tinymce.activeEditor.save();
});
}

This you can find it your TinyMCEHtmlEditor.js file. What it does is it saves the state of current active editor when we type something it it. This logic works when you have more then one TinyMCE editor in single form. Because when you are typing inside it tinymce.activeEditor gives instance of current active editor and keyup events save its state. So when you getValue of editor, it reflects the new value.

Hope this helps you.
