Empty e-mail when sending mail

[Ron]

Had this problem in 0.2, and now also in the new 0.2.2. E-mails I sent using Firefox 3.0.10 in HTML format (using tinyMCE) become empty. Coincidence is that I had the same problem yesterday when working with TinyMCE. In that situation I had to change the TinyMCE settings in order to get it fixed. The problem is that the onSubmit event isn't bound properly to the form in which the editor resides. Changing /program/js/editor.js to this:

else // mail compose

tinyMCE.init({

mode : 'exact', elements : 'compose-body',

Solves the problem. The problem arises when using mode: 'textareas'. Could be an TinyMCE bug though... I've set the priority that high because users don't see that the e-mail they sent became empty.

Works for me as of 2517 - I see the text in both plain-text and HTML on the receiving end.

Hm, TinyMCE is working OK at this moment again. Yesterday I had the same problem even with my fix applied above, but now it's working again :-(.

It could have to do with the sequence in which the onsubmit is bound to the form. I think that sometimes (1 of 10 times) the custom RC onsubmit is called first, and the TinyMCE after that. If that happens then the textarea is empty, and will be submitted empty to the server. To prevent this on some points in the javascript code the TinyMCE function TriggerSave? should be called: http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Functions#tinyMCE.triggerSave

Especially before the submit() method of the form is called.

Added triggerSave() call in r2694.
