Kai,
Can you give a little more information on how you used this? I added the tiny_mce.js to my WebServerResources folder, and in my appendToResponce:
AjaxUtils.addScriptResourceInHead (context, response, "app", "tiny_mce.js");
I copied and pasted the script into the head of my wrapper:
<script type = "text/javascript">
tinyMCE.init({
mode : "textareas",
theme : "advanced",
theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",
theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,separator,underline,strikethrough,separator,bullist,numlist,separator,undo,redo,separator,cleanup, separator, spellchecker, iespell",
theme_advanced_buttons2 : "",
theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
verify_html : true,
cleanup : true,
plugins : "legacyoutput,paste,spellchecker,iespell",
extended_valid_elements : "b,i,strike,u"
});
</script>
What do i have to do to bind my textarea (WOText) to the script?
Ted

Hi Theodore,
I use TinyMCE with paste and legacyoutput plug-in and I was able to solve copy and paste issue.
Here is the sample tinyMCE setting:
<script type = "text/javascript">
tinyMCE.init({
mode : "textareas",
theme : "advanced",
theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",
theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,separator,underline,strikethrough,separator,bullist,numlist,separator,undo,redo,separator,cleanup, separator, spellchecker, iespell",
theme_advanced_buttons2 : "",
theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
verify_html : true,
cleanup : true,
plugins : "legacyoutput,paste,spellchecker,iespell",
extended_valid_elements : "b,i,strike,u"
});
</script>
Regards,
Kai S. Wong

Is the Word issue the same as mine. When I view the logs I see 0x00 as the offending character. If you look at the accessor (setJobDescription) from below, you will see the NSLog that prints the int value of the characters. this is where I discovered the 'zero' at the end of the string.
As I said I can not believe I was the only one that could have had this problem so what do others do with it? Is there a way to handle this globally?
Obviously, there is no way to type a string with the trailing zero, so it only comes when pasting in text.
If I use the accessor method to fix this, that implies that I must fix any text area on any page that I generate. (this is of course only an issue with the WOText not WOTextField)
Maybe I should override the accessor in my model?
