Re: I can't get RichTextAre OnPaste Event hooking|sinking to work?

I was trying to work this out a few months back but gave up.
If anyone has a answer Id be interested too hear as well.

I suspect somehow you have to tie it to the inner iframes DOM, but I
dont know how to do that.
(in fact, not even sure if you can get the inner DOM of a iframe :-/)
