I am using some custom javascript to autosave the contents of a RadEditor. This is working fine and well, but if a user refreshes the page, the RadEditor reverts to what it looked like before it was edited.  Looking in the Page_Load function everything is correct, and the new value is being set to the RadEditor1.Content, but it seems like after Page_Load RadEditor is doing some magic that reverts it back to its original state.  Any suggestions?

Hi Nick,

Your problem is more likely related to overriding the editor content yourself, in your Page_Load method. Please note that if you read the content of the editor in an event handler (such as a button event handler) this event handler executes later in the page lifecycle compared to Page_Load. This is why, in case you set the initial content in Page_Load it is mandatory to add a check, e.g.

if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
    RadEditor1.Content = "Some content";
}

In case you are having any difficulty, our suggestion is to implement your scenario using a simple <asp:TextBox> instead of RadEditor. Once you get the textbox to work as needed, all you need to do is change the textbox to RadEditor - and all should be fine.

In case you are able to implement your scenario with a simple <asp:TextBox>, yet you are facing trouble with the RadEditor, please send us your working project in a support ticket and we will make the change for you.

All the best,
