Display large rich text field values on to the web in XPages

Question

I have a rich text field storing comma separated numbers (large numbers from 11111 to 99999 with three character prefix - so xxx11111, xxx11112 etc). I am using the appendText property and in the document I noticed that after around 16KB another rich text field with the same name is created.

But when I display this information on the web:

<xp:inputRichText id="inputRichText1" readonly="true" value="#{doc.RichTextField}">
</xp:inputRichText>

it's only displaying upto xxx16351. What am I missing here?

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You might want to alter your approach. What should work is Tim's MIME usage. So instead of RichText you write into a MIME field and the Domino engine takes care of size and rendering.

In any case, speak after me: There is no RichText on the web, it is a ghost of Christmas past, there is only MIME.

Let us know how it goes

Answer 2

Is it only displaying the content from the first rich text field? I suspect that the value binding to fields will only retrieve from the first NotesItem with that name, rather than aggregating all NotesItems with that name.
