RadEditor control returning empty

[Renato]

Hi, I have a RadEditor control which is returning "empty". The ID of the control is reComment and reComment.Content is returning empty, any ideas?

        <telerik:RadEditor ID="reComment" runat="server" EditModes="Design" ToolbarMode="ShowOnFocus" ToolsWidth="170px" Width="412px" Height="72px">
 
            <Tools>
                <telerik:EditorToolGroup>
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="Bold" />
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="Italic" />
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="StrikeThrough" />
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="Underline" />
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="InsertUnorderedList" />
                    <telerik:EditorTool Name="InsertOrderedList" />
                </telerik:EditorToolGroup>
            </Tools>
        </telerik:RadEditor>

            <asp:Button ID="btSubmit" runat="server" Text="Valider" OnClick="btSubmit_Click" />

code:

        if (reComment.Content.Trim() != "") <<<<<<<< HERE RETURNING "EMPTY"
        {

The reComments is inside a Panel and is being declared inside onInit

        protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
        {
            Page.Init += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e_Init)
            {                
                    reComment = this.FindControl("reComment") as RadEditor;
 

thanks

Hi Renato,

You have an answer on this issue in another forum post opened from you. Please follow the informationm there. 

Just in short I will explain for everyone who will read this thread from here that the editor content is loaded with data from the ViewState on the page load event, before this stage the value of this content is null or empty string literal.

I would like to ask to open only one support thread about the same issue, so that we are able to track the information correctly and provide you with a proper solution.

On your last issue with the support response time - please note that the guaranteed 24 hour turnaround time applies only for official support tickets.
