tinyMCE - submit via AJAX problem

TinyMCE is a great editor, but if you try to use mootools or any other javascript framework to submit your post, the post variables of the ( former ) textarea will stay blank.

A simple addition to the submit button resolves this issue:

onclick="tinyMCE.triggerSave(true,true);"


After that, your post variables are all submitted as usual.

tinyMCE - startup without p tag

Since the new release of tinyMCE (3.x), every opened editor starts with a p tag. To circumvent this behaviour, place the following line into your init function of the editor:

example:

tinyMCE.init({
...
forced_root_block : false,
...

That’s it. The editor now starts without any html tags.
