ckEditor strips content

When I paste the HTML below in ckeditor source view, and save it, I can view the icon.  When I edit the section again, or just view it in non-source mode, the line is removed.

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span>

I'm using a custom ckeditor.js file that contains config.allowedContent = true; .  I believe this setting allows any content?

If I add text inside the span tag, it works:

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search">Search</span>

Any suggestions what could be causing this or how to work around it?

Thanks!

Re: ckEditor strips content

ckEditor can get a bit carried away trying to clean up HTML.

The best workaround in this situation is to add a comment to between the opening and closing spans:

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"><!-- do not delete me --></span>

I hope this helps you,

Joe

Re: ckEditor strips content

Putting a space works too I've found. &nbsp;

It would be nice to prevent any reformatting of HTML.
