Editor becomes read only when used with jquery tabs

Hello. I have an instance of ckeditor inside of a jquery tab. The first time I hit the tab, everything is good. I can type into the editor.

If I select a different tab, and then come back to the tab with my ckeditor instance, the editor is in a sort of "read only" mode. I can see my last changes, I can select the text in the editor, but I can't type or change anything. I can still use everything in the toolbar. I just can't enter text.

I'm using a textarea html tag and the CKEDITOR.replace method only once on document ready.

Anyone know what could be causing this?

Regards,

E
