Re: [orion-dev] Using Orion Editor in a form

[Silenio Quarti <Silenio_Quarti@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The complete API of an editor (orion.editor.Editor)
should be available (getText/setText, geSelection/setSelection, getModel(),
getTextView(), etc). If it is not, please open a bug report with a snippet
that reproduces it.

I am not sure I understand what you
mean by using a "textarea does not show the XML declaration".
  It seems to work fine to me. Would you be able to alter the snippet
to show what is the issue?

Hi,

Thank your the quick response. I saw "setText()", but what about
"getText()"? That seems to be unavailable.

Furthermore, <textarea> and <pre> produce different results:

<pre>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
standalone="yes"?&gt;</pre>
shows the XML declaration
<textarea>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
standalone="yes"?&gt;</textarea>
does not.

When using without Orion, the contents are displayed fine.

Cheers,

Oliver
