FCKEditor not working with Contentplaceholder (ASP.NET)

I posted a similar message in the Support forum to no avail. I wonder if some folks on this forum have been working with ASP.NET and experienced the same problem. If FCKEditor is used on a single ASP.NET page, the editor renders fine. However, in a master-details configuration, the editor won't show up if the FCKEditor user-control is embedded in a contentplaceholder (see code below).

I noticed that If the $ sign is replaced with an _ in the first input box in the HTML output, it works ok. Question: Is the $ char a reserved symbol in FCKEditor? If so, can it be changed to something else (ASP.NET adds by default $ chars in details page.) TIA for any hints.

Editor hidden:
<div>
    <input type="hidden" id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor1" name="ctl00$CPM1$FCKeditor1" value="" />
    <input type="hidden" id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor1___Config" value="" />
    <iframe id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor1___Frame"
        src="/Anders/FCKeditor/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor1&amp;Toolbar=Default"
        width="100%" height="200px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">
    </iframe>
</div>

Editor visible (after replacing $ with _ in the first input box name):
<div>
   <input type="hidden" id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor2" name="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor2" value="" />
   <input type="hidden" id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor2___Config" value="" />
   <iframe id="ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor2___Frame"
       src="/Anders/FCKeditor/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=ctl00_CPM1_FCKeditor2&amp;Toolbar=Default"
       width="100%" height="200px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">
   </iframe>
</div>

Did you ever find a solution to this issue? I'm running into the same problem still...
