Jquery and ckeditor ID attribute

hey mates

maybe its a novice question but i tried lots of ways to hack this arround but nothing came out

i want to user some jquery plugin and i wonder how to fetch ckeditor textarea ID attribute

to clear out my question let me give u some e.g. :

        echo '<textarea class="ckeditor" name="content"  cols="50" rows="3" >'.$value.'</textarea>';

and i need to use this block of jquery code :

      var content= $("#content").val();

problem is here that ID content is undefined while i tried different ways like :

      var content=$("textarea[name=content]").val();

or even adding id to textarea itself like :

        echo '<textarea class="ckeditor"  id="content"   name="content"  cols="50" rows="3" >'.$value.'</textarea>';

nothing helps me
it seems when i use class='ckeditor' and it loads ckeditor then id attribute changes to sth else

i wonder if u can help me to use my jquery code for fetching ckeditor content

as i said it only needs ID attribute

thanks in advance

yours
