How to get clean XHTML?

How can I get clean xhtml from CKEditor?

If user pastes code

<div>Text here</div></div>

I want to get

<div>Text here</div>

out of CKEditor somehow. How to do this?

I just could not find how to run the same function which is run on CKEDITOR.replace('divId', {});

Also, if one could tell me where to define how xhtml is formatted, I would be thankful.

Re: How to get clean XHTML?

I think I found a solution. It's not pretty, but it seems to work:

CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].updateElement();
CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].setData();
var content = CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].getData();
alert(content);

Re: How to get clean XHTML?

My previous code is not to trust. Here's my new code, which seems to work as expected:

CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].updateElement();
var content = CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].getData();
CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].setData(content,
   function()
   {
      content = CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].getData();
      CKEDITOR.instances['myEditor'].destroy();
      alert(content);
   }
);

This code makes sure CKEditor instance is updated before getting the (cleaned) data out of it again.
