CK Editor - data loss

I have embedded a CKEditor in my application, which I have developed using OutSystems. Whenever I enter some data into the CKEditor and press 'OK' the data is saved, but when I open the CKEditor again for editing then the previously entered data is cleared somehow.

This is against the normal functionality. The user does not wants this data loss.

Any hints ?

Thanks!

  • I don't think the CKEditor component has that bug, so this sounds like an application logic problem.

    Are you sure you are:

    1. Properly saving the Variable bound to the Input that CKEditor is overlaying to a persistent place (DB, session variable etc) inside the screen Submit action?
    2. Loading that same Variable with that persisted value inside the screen Preparation action? (when you come back to edit)
