Does anyone out there know how to submit a form that contains a Dojo Rich Text Editor?

I’ve tried adding the “name” attribute to my element that is decorated with dojoType=”dijit.Editor”, however, I don’t see any of the HTML on my receiving process.

I’ve checked the documentation and I don’t see any clear example (other than connecting the on submit event of the form in question with another function that sets the data of a hidden input with the “value” of the Rich Text Editor”).

I would assume there has to be some “easier” way to do this?
