{ name: 'insert', items: [ 'Image', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'SpecialChar', 'PageBreak', ] },

The issue is Ckeditor don't act like a classic textarea if i post asynch a classic textarea everything works fine but when i post a ckeditor textarea the data still the same and don't care about the modification i made.
If you are posting async to another page and it works, that means it is working. If you post normally and you don't see the extra html it creates, then something is wrong with your code that receives the data.
To test, please create a page with a text area without ckeditor and post the data to the same page. Make sure you have your cold fusion page set up to accept the post. If that does not work, you know it is your own code. If it does work, add back the code for ckeditor. Just use the basic for now like

Now, submit again and what happens? Select a work and make it bold and submit. Do you see the extra code wrapped in strong or b?

If i post normally (not async) everything works fine or don't work only if i post it async to a div. Using coldfusion.ajaxsubmit, or coldfusion.navigate or jquery.
You can use jquery to post the async. http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post/ Look at the example $.post( "test.php", $( "#testform" ).serialize() );
That will post to the page test.php using the form with the id testform.

I can use a div don't need a cfdiv if there is a solution to save data in file or dbase.
You still have to post the data someplace and then display it. Either another page, the current page and accept the data via your server side code to a database, variable or cookie.
