CKEditor after AJAX call returns ckeditor without the tools

CKEditor after AJAX call returns ckeditor without the tools

I have an AJAX function that replaces input boxes in form with pre populated input boxes. I have an issue with the CKEditor box where the data is there, but the CKEditor comes in with all the tools stripped away. So it looks like a regular <textarea field. I'm not sure if you have to see it but I've attached the php file that is replacing those fields. Besides that, it works ok. Thank you.

I'd need FTP access and a url to debug this. It is probably an issue with the ckeditor files themselves, not the page. Perhaps missing theme files.

When the content refreshes, you have to re-initialize the ckeditor. You can do that with javascript like:

if (CKEDITOR.instances.prod_desc) CKEDITOR.instances.prod_desc.destroy();
CKEDITOR.replace( 'prod_desc' );

Just call that javascript after the new textarea has loaded and that will convert it back into a ckeditor rich text editor.
