      Hi Sabir - are you talking about this? var fieldsToReplace = ["company_textmodulebackingfield", "company_textmodule2backingfield"];The reason I used an array here was to enable replacing multiple fields with rich text boxes on the same page without needing to modify the code to do it.. Was that your question? If not, could you let me know which part of the code wasn't clear? I'm happy to help!

      Hi Vittorio – yes, the code is incorrect now. I’m not exactly sure what happened, let me see if I can find the code and get this corrected… I’ll let you know as soon as it’s fixed!

    Hi,Thanks for your article, it's very helpfull.I got a problem when I had several rich text on the same form.Indeed, only the last field to replace is working well. I have two field to replace "acc_description", "acc_topline", when I made a modification in the first field, the form doesn't understand I made a change and the automatic saving is not triggered.The second one works correctly. Do you have an idea ?I didn't made any changes on your code.Thanks for you helpDotch.

      Hi Dotch - unfortunately I don't have an environment anymore where I can debug the code to see if something isn't working correctly... Feel free to send me an email to peter hauge microsoft com and we can work something out. Thanks!

      Hi Sally - sorry for the delay responding! I think we can accomplish what you're expecting with some adjustments in the javascript... Basically with some additional backing fields, in the callbacks on changes you can update both the HTML and text-based fields so you have both available. Please email me at p e t e r ( d o t ) h a u g e ( a t ) m i c r o s o f t ( d o t ) c o m , and we can discuss further.. Thanks!
