Inserting code problem

Hi there,

When I paste some code in CKEditor and click the code button again to go back to the design mode it automatically corrects/ cleans up the code I just pasted.

But when I just submit the code withought clicking the code button again first it doesn't correct the code. Some code that I pasted was so buggy that I lost all data from one of my tables.

Now I want to do one of the following things but I have no idea how:
- Execute this cleanup function on submit
- Check if the user is still working in the source code to block a submit attempt

Create a function which updates the tag holding each CKEditor instance :

function updateCke() {
for (i in CKEDITOR.instances) {
CKEDITOR.instances[i].updateElement();
}
}

then add the function to the onSubmit event handler of the form.

<form accept-charset="UTF-8" onSubmit="updateCke();" action="index.php" method="post">
<fieldset>
<legend>Title</legend>
<textarea></textarea>
<input></input>
</fieldset>
</form>

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.

I tried to use the function you gave me, but I couldn't get it to work.
The data gets saved the same like it normaly would. If I just call the function withought submitting the form it doens't do anything eighter. I dont even get an error.
