CKEditor Becomes Disabled When Moved with Javascript

I've tried your jQuery code in my test configuration and it seems to work without problems

I suggest that you try opening html in Firefox Firebug to look for errors.

How can I delete my post?

I am having the same problem. I have understood that this is because with the moving of the div it doesn't move it but rebuilds it, on this instance the ID of the textarea is already "known" to the CKEDITOR javascript and therefore will not activate it again... or something like this.

Anyway, it's not working for me either, if anyone has a suggestion to get this working would be great.

To outline the problem again; I load the page with 2 divs, they both contain CKEDITORs, when I move the second div in front of the first using 
$('#sort_order_2').after(
        document.getElementById('sort_order_1')
    );

the div with sortorder 2 will keep working (as this is not changed) but the div with sortorder 1 will have loaded EDITORS but they do not show the content, nor can you enter or edit the content or use the buttons. When trying to use the buttons the error (in Chrome) shows it is undefined and therefore cannot be called.

I was using jquery sortable to move multiple instances of CKEditor around.  After dragging and dropping a container, the CKEditor instance contained within became disabled.

To solve this, I had to bind functions to both the start and stop events of sortable() to basically destroy and rebuild the CKEditor instances.  My syntax:

        $('#master-container').sortable({
            items: ".sortable-container",
            start: function(event, ui){
                var textareaId = ui.item.find('textarea').attr('id');
                if (typeof textareaId != 'undefined') {
                    var editorInstance = CKEDITOR.instances[textareaId];
                    editorInstance.destroy();
                    CKEDITOR.remove( textareaId );
                }
            },
            stop: function(event, ui){
                var textareaId = ui.item.find('textarea').attr('id');
                if (typeof textareaId != 'undefined') {
                    CKEDITOR.replace( textareaId );
                }
            }
            
        });

Hope this works for you.  Good luck, happy coding.
