[SOLVED] Accessing Message Body

[henrythacker]

Is there any way that Zimlets can modify the contents of the e-mail body? I don't think this was the intention for Zimlets, in which case is the only way to acheive this, to modify the source?

I basically just need the ability to replace all the text in the content with a preset string when an option in a Zimlet context menu is clicked.

For a message that is being composed, or a message that already exists? For compose, no problem. For a message that already exists, it's much more dicey since it also involves re-indexing the message, etc.

For a message that is being composed, you should be able to grab the div that represents the edit element and replace it there.

If you find the spell checking code, then you'll see how the content of a composed message is accessed.

Cheers guys - I am doing this to try and set up some kind of Signatures or Email templates system. If I get anything good out of this - will probably release this. You wouldn't have a link to the spell check demo would you?

That's your pot of gold, I think.
