FCK formatting not stored

Hi.

Basically, I have an input form with some input fields and one text area, which uses the FCKEditor for formatting. On the submission form, the FCKEditor works perfectly, just like it's supposed to. However, when I hit the submit button, none of the FCKEditor's formatting is stored in the database.
The corresponding SQL-database column is of MEDIUMBLOB type.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong for I have followed the documentation and the editor seems to be working.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance!

Re: FCK formatting not stored

What do you mean with "formatting" in "none of the FCKEditor's formatting is stored in the database"? Does the text goes to the DB, but the tags don't?

Yes. None of the FCK's tags are story. The text itself is.

Use an alternative page to submit the form and echo back the HTML-encoded response. If you see all tags, then something in your backend code strips off tags. Alternatively, you can disable JS in the browser and type HTML without FCKeditor instantiated. See if it's getting through. If not, again, it's a backend problem.
