Rich Text Editor (YUI Simple Text Editor used) not sending data to next page
- by Aman Chhabra
I am using a simple text editor from YUI, but when I click submit the code in the textarea/editor is not sent to the next page. I want to be able to receive it on the subsequent page and then store it in a DB(MySql). I have wasted lot of time already. Please help.
