the text in the richeditor does not change.

how to change the text the text in the rich text editor?

Answer 1

HtmlBox has a set_text(html) method you can call. Store the original htmlbox call you have now:

var box = $('#Survey_Value').htmlbox();

When you have new data call this:

box.set_text(data.Value);

This method accepts html and will set your <textarea>'s value as well.
