CKeditor Value as php $variable.

Hey CKeditor friends,

I need help.

All I want to do is have the Value of the editor be populated dynamically with a php/sql variable. Try as I may, nothing works. My first instinct on how to code this is as follows:

        <?php
                $edi = $_GET["edi"];

      include '../library/config.php';
      include '../library/opendb.php';

      $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tbannouncements WHERE id LIKE '$edi'");
      while($r=mysql_fetch_array($result))
         {   
         $sn=$r["sn"];
         $name=$r["name"];
         $title=$r["title"];
         $description=$r["description"];
         
                  $oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('FCKeditor1') ;
                  $oFCKeditor->BasePath = 'http://www.google.ca/fckeditor/' ;
                  $oFCKeditor->Value = '<?php echo"$description"; ?>' ;
                  $oFCKeditor->Create() ;         
         }
 
      include '../library/closedb.php';
      ?>   

However, That attempt returns an empty editor. What I am trying to accomplish seems so rudimentary- Yet, I can't find the solution anywhere. I've searched this forum as well as others- I've googled and I've read documentation. Heck, I've even just sat here trying different things on my own. Still nothing.

I'd appreciate any help.

THANK YOU!
