PLEASE HELP. Sorry if this is a repeat but I am desperate.

I have been using fckEditor for a content management system and my project is taking twice as long because of fckEditor changing my code. I have searched on Google for months and came up with fixes for some of the problems but not all.

I am working in COldfusion 9 and the biggest problem is that it strips my <CFIF> tags.

So this code:

<option value="What's your mother's maiden name?" <cfif #memberInfo.strSecurityQuestion# EQ "What's your mother's maiden name?">selected="selected"</cfif>>What's your mother's maiden name?</option>

Becomes this:

<option value="What's your mother's maiden name?">selected="selected"</cfif>>What's your mother's maiden name?</option>

Please, please, please help me stop this.

Is there an alternative to fckEditor. I am BEYOND frustrated with this thing!!

What's your cnfig for protectedSource?

FCKeditor version is 3 years old, you can think about an update to new CKEditor. Newest version is 3.6.1

You would need to use something like the protectedSource, but you are putting the special code inside the element tag, so I think that you might have a hard time to find a solution for your problem.

You are putting this

<cfif #memberInfo.strSecurityQuestion# EQ "What's your mother's maiden name?">selected="selected"</cfif>

inside of this

<option value="What's your mother's maiden name?" >

That won't be handled correctly with the default configuration, you have to find some way to protect it so that both CKEditor and the browser don't understand it in the wrong way.
