Moving variable form Javascript to PHP?

[Otto Haldi]

Hello to all,

I just downloaded the cross-browser rich text editor from
Kevin Roth. http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm

Sample fo the html code:
<script language="JavaS cript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function submitForm() {
//call updateMessage to
updateRTE();
alert(document. RichTextEditor. msgbody.value);

//change the following line to true to submit form
return true;
}
//-->
</script>

The code shown a pop up alert box!

I'm not using javascript, but I like to know, how can I get
the value in a PHP $variable to save It in a MySQL table.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks.

Otto

Change the form action to a PHP script that will handle your input. Take out
the "alert" line in the javascript. When you submit the form, the variable
will be passed to your PHP script in the post array as $_POST['msgbody']

I still have a small question, witch variable should I read in
$_POST['msgbody']?

Here the all form:
<form name="RichTextE ditor" action="" method="post" onsubmit="retur n
submitForm();">
<?php include "includes/rte.php"; LoadRTE("msgbod y", $sContent, "", "", true);
?>

<script language="JavaS cript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function submitForm() {
//call updateMessage to
updateRTE();
// alert(document. RichTextEditor. msgbody.value);
return true;
}
//-->
</script>

<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Enregist rer"></p>
</form>

Otto
