FCK and protoype form.serialize()

Hi all,

I'm using FCKeditor and prototype and have run into a problem...

When I use prototype's form.serialize()... Iget the original value that was specified to the FCK field... any changes by the end user are not picked up...

Can anyone help... this one is driving me nuts

Thanks,

Mojoinst

Re: FCK and protoype form.serialize()

You have to have one of these somewhere:

function MyClass()
{
  this.UpdateEditorFormValue = function()
  {
    for ( i = 0; i < parent.frames.length; ++i )
    if ( parent.frames[i].FCK )
    parent.frames[i].FCK.UpdateLinkedField();
  }
}
// instantiate the class
var MyObject = new MyClass();

And then before calling Form.serialize() you must call:

MyObject.UpdateEditorFormValue();

Then it will work

Thank you sooo much!

Sorry about the late reply but that worked perfectly...

oh an i just noticed... why are these forums using a bbcode editor and not an FCKeditor ? lol
