link does not save to data

I was testing your ckeditor and I noticed that the link feature does not work.

Repro step:

- show editor in popup (jqxWindow)

- enter text

- make a selection

- click on link icon

- enter something in url and click ok

Result: the selected text is now blue and underlined (like a link) but if you check the CKEDITOR.instances.pageTextEditor.getData() the data doesn't have the a tag html. Also if you click on the source button, the a tag is not there.

What can be the problem?

Nevermind I found the problem

Nevermind I found the problem. There was a filter applied to a tags.

CKEDITOR.on('instanceReady', function (ev) {
	var editor = ev.editor;
	var dataProcessor = editor.dataProcessor;
	var htmlFilter = dataProcessor && dataProcessor.htmlFilter;

	function spanToUpperCase(element) {
		if (element.attributes[ 'style' ] == 'text-transform:uppercase') {
			var valueText = element.children[ 0 ];
			valueText && ( valueText.value = valueText.value.toUpperCase() || '' );
			delete element.name;
		}
	}

	function removeATagWithName(element) {
		if (element.attributes[ 'name' ] != '') {
			delete element.name;
		}
	}

	editor.dataProcessor.dataFilter.addRules({
		elements: {
			span: spanToUpperCase,
			a: removeATagWithName
		}
	});

	editor.dataProcessor.htmlFilter.addRules({
		elements: {
			span: spanToUpperCase,
			a: removeATagWithName
		}
	});
});
