Jquery steps plugins conflict with CKeditor RTE plugins - jquery-steps

Question

Hi guys I am using this http://www.jquery-steps.com/Examples as my wizard form plugins.
I notice that it has a conflict with Ckeditor plugin with an error of Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'unselectable' of null.
I just tried the solution on this post Ckeditor with jQuery form wizard but it doesn't fix the issue.
What is the best solution for this?

I guess you put the CKeditor right into the wizard HTML code. In that case what´s really important to understand is that jQuery Steps manipulates DOM objects. That´s really bad for javascript code in general.
To run javascript controls within jQuery Steps you have to ensure that:
no javascript code goes inside your wizard HTML
first jQuery Steps code executes and then the javascript code that belongs to the HTML inside the wizard HTML
Good example:
<script>
$(function ()
{
// first jQuery Steps
$("#wizard").steps();
// then components inside jQuery Steps
$("#editor").ckeditor();
});
</script>
<div id="wizard">
<h1>Title</h1>
<div>
<div id="editor"></div>
</div>
</div>
Bad example:
<script>
$(function ()
{
$("#wizard").steps();
});
</script>
<div id="wizard">
<h1>Title</h1>
<div>
<script>
$(function ()
{
$("#editor").ckeditor();
});
</script>
<div id="editor"></div>
</div>
</div>
