asp.net controls not able to grab the value or text
<p>I have a cleEditor on my page which needs rows="" cols="" and asp.net does not like this when I do runat="Server"</p>

<p>To get around this I was trying to use FindControl, but I cannot seem to grab the value this way.</p>

<p>Here is my code:</p>

<pre><code>protected void os_submit_Click ( object sender, EventArgs e )
{
    Control cleEditor = FindControl( "editor2" );
    MailMessage mm = new MailMessage( "OnlineSignup@help.com", "help@help.com" );
    mm.Subject = "Online Signup Checklist";
    mm.Body = cleEditor.value; // Trying to grab the value of the textarea
    mm.IsBodyHtml = true;
    SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
    smtp.Host = "127.0.0.1";
    smtp.Port = 25;
    smtp.Send( mm );
}
</code></pre>

<p>I have a TextArea that has the id of editor2.  Behind the scense jquery turns this into a rich text editor.  I need asp.net to be able to grab the value/text of this textarea.</p>

<p>Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?</p>
