i m using ckeditor in a form that submits through ajax. when the submit is clicked and the submission is in progress my ckeditor converts into a plain text editor and all the controls are gone, as soon as the submit is complete, the controls are back, it looks ugly. Any solution?

This is you own form or you use some module to do this ?
Can you check in Firebug console (Firefox add-on) if there are any errors. You can also check in in Firebug's net tab if all request are correct. Do you use some cache and JavaScript/CSS files optimization ?

I can confirm this on the latest 7.x dev... if you have ckeditor enabled on a field in a content_type form... then try adding an image in the 'attachments' below in your form... when submitting that (clicking upload) and the submission is in progress ckeditor converts into a plain text field, as soon as the submit is complete, the controls come back.

I ran firebug console with profile and no errors or warnings came up.

One other effect is that if the text editor is disabled it will turn on after uploading an image or file to a file field.
