Answer 1

If you use the jQuery form plugin, you can use the beforeSubmit option for a more elegant solution:

$("#form").ajaxForm({
    beforeSubmit:  function()
{
        /* Before submit */
    for ( instance in CKEDITOR.instances )
    {
        CKEDITOR.instances[instance].updateElement();
    }
},

  // ... other options
});
