CKEditor for .NET not being able to save

I have searched and couldn't find anything relevant.

ok so I am not using the save button that comes with CKEditor I am basically just sending the contents to of the text property to the database.

So when I have a page that causes to the editor to be populated with existing data and then I modify that data and then click my own save button nothing changes in the database....when I run through debug with visual studio 2010 when i check the contents of the text property of the editor control after I have changed it and clicked the button(as stated above) the text property still contains the old data that i pulled out of the database on page load and so therefore it writes the same data back.

please help

many thanks

Re: CKEditor for .NET not being able to save

Two thoughts:

Are you populating the editor in the Page_Load event without checking the IsPostBack property? If so, you're overwriting the posted data with the original data.

Have you set the HtmlEncodeOutput property to false? Looking at the code for CKEditor.NET v3.5.3, it won't load the posted data unless this property is true.
