To retrieve the data back from db in html format in ckeditor

[navapradha]

Am using a div element which is getting replaced by the ckeditor.The user enters some data in the editor and it is being saved in the database. Am retrieving back the data from DB and trying to display it in editor.Suppose if the user has entered a table in the editor it gets stored in db as <table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 50px; height: 50px"><tbody><tr><td></td></tr></tbody></table>. Now when retrieved back from DB and shown in the page instead of displaying a table it displays as a text "<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 50px; height: 50px"><tbody><tr><td></td></tr></tbody></table>" like this. But I want it to displayed as a table.Any idea of how to do this.

1. Please read some tutorials about encoding decoding request parameters
2. In your case try using encodeURIComponent method on editor_data. You have to encode HTML before sending it to Server. You may also need to use decodeURIComponent when loading data from server.
3. Bear in mind that query string length is limited in browsers. It is not good idea to send HTML using GET method. Use POST instead.
