Hi ol, am having a WYSIWYG textarea which i would like to copy the text (as-plane) and insert it to another textarea on the same form as plane text using javascript..............HELP! :-)
A:
You could try using the innerHTML property. A sample code:
<script language="javascript">
document.getElementById('newArea').innerHTML = document.getElementById('oldArea').innerHTML;
</script>
Where "newArea" is the textarea to copy to and "oldArea" the textarea to copy from.
