Problems with the silverstripe tinymce implementation

21 June 2007 at 8:44pm
I am updating a tinymce editor instance from within my javascript code like this:
tinyMCE.setContent(this.datems.Content);
where this.datems.Content contains html code such as: <h1>Some Header</h1>.
When I test this within an untouched copy of tinymce outside of the silverstripe cms I have no problems. It translates over beautifully. But when I run this within the silverstripe cms I get jumpled messes: primarily that it encodes my brackets so that I see the source code in the wysiwyg view. When I view the source of it I see something like <p>&lt;h1&gt;Some Text&lt;/h1. Obviously the html is being rewritten.
So I took the plunge into the tiny_mce javascript and found the _setHTML method that silverstripe uses to intercept the setContent and updateContent methods. Within this method your all kinds of things are being rewritten.
My question is is what does _setHTML expect so that my code comes unscathed out the other side (ie: not having all the bracket characters of my HTML tags all construed).
cheers,

I have been able to unescape html characters for the tinyMCE, though it was a bit of a hack of the silverstripe system. I still have strange things happening like bolding of text visually being bolded but not 'sticking' when viewing the tinyMCE source code and when saving back out.
What I need to do is simple:
I have one tinyMCE instance within the CMS admin that I need to load html content into and get html content out of dynamically via javascript calls. I believe that silverstripe does this everytime a user navigates between pages. What is the best way to dynamically load and retrieve html content from the editor within silverstripe.I am up against the gun on this project and would really appreciate a response as soon as possible.
