Hi Gavin:
Not sure if this is your problem or not, but I had a similar issue with email message content. The solution was to change the attribute(s) on the Service(s) used from something like:

<attribute name="textArea" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true" allow-html="safe"/>
to:
<attribute name="textArea" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true" allow-html="any"/>

There was something in the pasted text (a hidden character or something that the OFBiz HTML Service validation didn't like.)

Of course, this assumes that you are calling a Service on the backend and not processing the form some other way :-)

So, to make this change you have to figure out which Service is being called when your form's textarea is being processed on the backend.

Best of luck.

Hi



I am trying to attac a visual-editor (Whizzywig from Unverse) to a textArea
field.  It works fine when I type directly into the input box.  The problem
starts when I try to paste text from any other editor (including Notepad
unformatted) into it.  Ofbiz throws an error "<  greater and less-than>"
symbols not allowed when it tries to validate the field.  I have tried
various clean it tools - but it does not work.  The Unverse website is not
helpful either.  Any ideas?



Regards



Gavin
