How do I set a rich editor textarea programatically when filling a form using vb6

Asked by greg_white in Visual Basic Programming, JavaScript, Scripting Languages

Tags: vb6 html dom

I'm using vb6 to fill a web form programmatically.  One of the fields is a textarea that uses a rich text editor.

When I assign values to the textarea using either name or id, they do not show up in the textarea/editor.  When I save the form it does not acknowledge there is any data there.Start Free Trial

I have tried a couple of ways...
 
1.  brwWebBrowser.Document.Forms(0).Item("post-title").Value = "Test title"
2.  Set tmpObj = brwWebBrowser.Document.getElementById("post-title")
    tmpObj.Value = "Test title"
