Hi there,

I thought I got Dojo working with rails but I was wrong. When I have a  
text\_area set-up as:

\<%= f.text\_area :content %\>

Generated HTML:

The form submits fine and the content is sent to the controller. However  
when I use the following:

\<%= f.text\_area :content, {:dojoType =\> ‘dijit.Editor’, :class =\>  
‘dojoEditor’} %\>

Generated HTML:

The form is submitted but, the content is not submitted. Has anyone  
worked with rails and Dojo, specifically the rich editor, and found a  
way to make this work?

Thanks,  
Schalk
