I upgraded to 1.3. Now the multiline fields have stopped working.

I have my pages set with one multiline field, no other custom
fields.

Changes don't get saved at all when attempting to update or create
new. When I press update or publish, it always asks me to
reassociate the page with a custom write panel if the multiline field
is empty. The regular fields update fine (though there is a problem
with inserting images - they get placed in the multiline field rather
than the page field and have to be moved manually).

There is a a javascript error saying:
tinyMCE.get("content") is undefined
at line 382 in whatever script it is loading through the load-
scripts.php file.

Any ideas what the problem may be? I reverted back to 1.2.1 and it
works fine again.

Ah well 1.3.1 fixes this issue and I have decided to stay with it.
1.3.1 fixes some of the multiline problems that were in 1.2. It does
have at least one new problem, but it is not that bad. That problem
is that it tends to remove line breaks from the multiline fields.
This becomes a problem for some things, such as the worpdress
[caption] tags, which don't seem to be rendered by Wordpress if all on
one line. I just put a div around any problem captions and it works.

The stripping of line breaks is a BIG problem for me right now, my
client won`t accept that the text appears as one huge chunk. I need
the ability to structure the text with normal line breaks etc.

Many thanks for this awesome plugin in any case. I will donate for
sure, it`s just this link-break issue needs to be fixed before I can
acually use it.

Is there any fix or hack for this? I am willing to pay if needed.

Please get back to me. A zillion thanks in advance!
