You should set it on the tk2dUITextInput.Text. You should be reading the values from that too, if you aren't already. The text mesh simply displays the text on the textinput.

You're using the text input, correct? So read and assign textInput.text, don't read directly from the textmesh. The textInput updates the text on there.

Public tk2dTextMesh chatInput;
string stringToEdit;
      if(chatInput.text!="")
      {
         
         stringToEdit   = chatInput.text;
         Debug.Log("stringToEdit.."+ stringToEdit);
         string encodedText = WWW.EscapeURL(stringToEdit);
         SendChat(encodedText);
      }

      chatInput.text = "";
      stringToEdit ="";
      chatInput.Commit();

this is my code here can you please tell me what changes should i make :)

Surely that chat INput text mesh is linked to the tk2dUITextInput?
Basically, do what i've been telling you in the past 2 posts.
use tk2dUITextInput chatInput instead of the textmesh.
