Hi cool widget. I have got this up and runnig but im unable to get any data that i type into the tinymce textarea that is created out by using dojo to query the id of the textarea… ? Any idea what could be wrong?

Actually, I did not need dijit._Templated for my implementation. I have used it in other widgets that I have created, but in this case, I decided not to use it. I finally created a demo of this widget. You can view it here. I made a minor change to the widget because it was not displaying the toolbar on top when in simple mode. I now store the widget on Google Code (and updated the post with a link to the demo and Google Code).

Hey, thanks for this. It got me up and running with TinyMCE pretty fast.

Just a couple notes: in your textboxes, the & are being converted to the code version, which causes errors.

Also, the reason you need dijit._Templated and a templatePath or templateString is so that the widget puts a node on the page. That way you don’t have to add the textArea with an id that needs to match the one you used inside your widget–one less thing to get it up and running.

After those two changes, I had a widget-based tinyMCE editor running.

Thanks!
