The issue i am having ckeditor overwriting my html for example  
it does not let me to wrap divs or tables or any content by text with a href tags.  
for example i used [google.com](http://google.com) as a href links.

## " [| # 60% OFF # Save $135.30 | | Sale ends today! |](http://google.com/) "

After I close the dialogbox and open content gets altered by ckeditor.

| 
# [60% OFF](http://google.com/)

```
																	<h1 style=" text-decoration: none; font-size: 30px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-style: italic; white-space: nowrap; text-transform: uppercase; color:#fff;"><a href="http://google.com/" style="text-decoration: none; color:#fff;" target="_blank">Save $135.30</a></h1>
																	</td>
																</tr>
																<tr>
																	<td align="center" style=" text-decoration:none; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 18px; color:#fff; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><a href="http://google.com/" style="text-decoration: none; color:#fff;" target="_blank">Sale ends today! </a></td>
																</tr>
															</tbody>
														</table>
														</center>
														</div>

```

what it doest it puts tags inside of it.
