Is there a reason you are not using .set("chinesedata") instead?
that is the preferred method to set the contents of a textfield
quoting from the RDoc for the .value=() method "Sets the value of the
text field directly. It causes no events to be fired or exceptions to
be raised, so generally shouldn't be used. It is preffered to use the
set method."
