Re: [Xsltforms-support] Is there any way to put markup in a textarea in XSLTForms

[Dan M. <dan...@gm...>]

Hello Alain,

Thanks for your quick reply!

I think we may have to add this to your TODO list.

I am sorry we were not able to get everyone together this week for some
training.  It will have to wait till we get back from Prague I believe.

But it looks like we have a few items that should fill up at least one day
of consulting.

I will continue to work with CKEditor to see if I can get at least that part
working.

- Dan
