FCKeditorAPI in dialogs

Hello, I would know how to access the FCKeditroAPI library from a dialog. I have created a plugin with an editor and I can't get the value of it.

I'm lost, any suggestion will be appreciated.

Miguel.

Re: FCKeditorAPI in dialogs

Since I can't get FCKeditorAPI in a dialog. I have solved my problem like this:

var oEditor = null;

function FCKeditor_OnComplete( editorInstance ) {
oEditor = editorInstance;
}

So that I have an editor in a dialog and I can get its value.

Miguel.

The FCKeditorAPI inside a dialog works for me just like in any other page, I don't have any problem with it.

Ok, so I will tell you some extra information.

My dialog contains a div which turns its visibility on / off, and that's div contains an iframe with the editor. It shouldn't affect because I wanted to use it inside iframe contents.

What I have now and works is:

      // Let's use a custom toolbar for this editor.
      oFCKeditor.ToolbarSet = 'PageSizeEditorToolbar';

      oFCKeditor.Value = '';
      oFCKeditor.Create();
      //-->

      var oEditor = null;

      function FCKeditor_OnComplete( editorInstance ) {
