I am trying to add TEXT with newline and spaces to the radEditor using VB.NET using the radEditor.Content property. But it seems to loose all the formatting made in the TEXT string.

Also I would like to know what method is recommended to call editor.set_html in VB.net. I guess that will solve my problem of formatting.

Thanks.

Hello Virendra,

The /r and /n symbols used in the textboxes to render new lines and spaces and new lines are not recognized by the web editors which work with HTML content only. For that reason you should replace the /r/n symbols with <br/> tags before loading them through the Content property of RadEditor. The empty spaces should be replaced by &nbsp; entities as well. You can do that using the String.Replace method.

OK I can do that. But how can I disable all the Rad Editor buttons and make it just like a TEXTbox similar to how the HTML mode looks then ?

Hi Virendra,

You can hide the toolbar by setting the following css class on the page with RadEditor:

<style type="text/css">
.reToolCell, .reLeftVerticalSide, .reRightVerticalSide { display:none; }
</style>

You can see how to hide the modules in this article: Disable or Hide Modules.

You can hide the edit mode buttons by setting EditModes="Design".

Sincerely yours,
