Send HTML through Ajax POST

Question

I have this code wich works with no errors when sending "simple text" through Ajax post. But when i want to send "html" to the server, my code will fail sometimes.

            var message = tinyMCE.activeEditor.getContent();

            if(message.length > 0)
            {
                message = Base64.encode(message);
                tinyMCE.activeEditor.setContent('');

                var parameters = 'message=' + message;
                var url = "ChatResponse.aspx";
                ajaxPost.open("POST", url, true);
                ajaxPost.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
                ajaxPost.setRequestHeader("Content-Length", parameters.length);
                ajaxPost.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
                ajaxPost.send(parameters);
            }

What is wrong ?

Answer 1

It is not being encoded before being sent. I believe TinyMCE has a method that allows you to get the encoded content. You may also want to try taking the content from the textarea using the value property.
