Submitting HTML from CKEditor in ASP.NET MVC

Question

I am using CKEditor with JQuery AJAX and ASP.NET MVC.

I am trying to perform an AJAX POST with JQuery but it fails to submit because of the HTML in the textarea. The form submits fine if I just enter plain text in a textarea, but not as HTML.

The JQuery method I am using to get the HTML from the textarea is .val()

Can someone tell me how to fix this problem please?

You will have to use GetData and also make sure your controller action that accepts the post has this annotation applied [HttpPost, ValidateInput(false)]

I did not succeed in that so if you are not required to use CKEditor you can switch to tinymce which you can add via NuGet (install-package TinyMCE.MVC) and this works fine with MVC
