[Tim Richardson]

Which plugin from web2pyslices are you using?

Also, can you be more clear about the problem.

i m using ckeditor from web2slices

OK, I hope that I can help with that.

I don't know what you mean by "show runtime preview in div". The editor is designed to be "attached" to certain fields in a form, as instructed in the web2py slices page.

The editor works fine as the plugin instructs, when used in the browsers that I have used. 

What browser are you using it in, what version of web2py, and how have you configured it?

How did you install it?

1. Go here http://ckeditor.com/download and download CKEditor.  I just use the Standard Package.

2. Open the zip file that you downloaded and copy the entire ckeditor folder to web2py/applications/your_app/static/js

3. Add this line to your layout.html after jquery is loaded

<script src="{{=URL('static', 'js/ckeditor/ckeditor.js')}}"></script>

To use ckeditor you are going to replace a textarea control with ckeditor.  To do so, add the following to your view:

<script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function() {

        CKEDITOR.replace('comment');

    });

</script>

comment is the 'name' of the textarea control I'm replacing.

Use firebug to figure out what the name of your textarea control is.

Lots of documentation available here:  http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/guide

Hope this helps.
