Why is CKEditor constantly producing HTML code with weird code like this?

If I clean up the bad code in the source code, and save the page sometimes it works the first time, but sometimes only the second time.

However, if I add any additional formatting, such as bold tags to any text on the page, then all the page reverts back to the bad code again.

Anybody know how to stop this from happening?

Looks like the code I posted was stripped from my post. I'll include it without the arrows ("<>") of the html tag.

It looks like this: p siber__q92dpb7seovvtbh5__vptr="4fa08e0" sourceindex="16"

Could u paste here what u put to your editor before save, and what u get after save?
Do u try last DEV version of CKEditor module?
Which version of CKEditor library do u use?
Do u try this with Full HTML text format?

Greetings

I'd like to paste it, but I don't want to create duplicate content on this web site. Did you want me to paste the whole page?

To answer your question, I've been pasting text out of MS Word into the CKEditor.

Looks like I'm using version "6.x-1.3". I haven't tried the latest DEV version, because I tend to shy away from modules that are still under development (just to be safe).

I'm not sure which version of CKEditor library I'm using.

Yup, I'm using full HTML format as output.

Thank you for your help, dczepierga!

Hi,
@ds2011 if you don't remember which version of CKEditor module did you downloaded and installed from http://ckeditor.com/download page, please look at CHANGES.html file in sites/all/modules/ckeditor/ckeditor directory and check there your version.
Please check here http://nightly.ckeditor.com/6995/_samples/tableresize.html if you have the same (bad) results with your code from Word (please check both Source and WYSIWYG mode and results after submit).
You can paste here what code do you paste to CKEditor and what is wrong with results.

Is there a way I can get Drupal.org to email me when people respond to my posts? I never know when someone responds.

@ds2011 in "Your Dashboard" link (in top of the page) you have an option/link subscribe.
There you can set what you want.
