  <pre><code>&lt;?php echo form_open('users/user/sendEmail', array('id' =&gt; 'send-mail-form', 'role' =&gt; 'form')); ?&gt;
  &lt;div class="row row_field"&gt;
      &lt;div class="col-md-12"&gt;
          &lt;label for="editor"&gt;Email Body:&lt;/label&gt;
          &lt;textarea name="email_body" id="editor"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>JS</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#editor').ckeditor();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>jquery-validation</strong> </p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#send-mail-form').validate({
      rules: {
          email_subject: {
              required: true,
              minlength: 15
          },
          email_body: {
              required: true,
              minlength: 50
          }
      },
      messages: {

          }
      },
      submitHandler: function(form) {
          form.submit(); //send data
      }
  });
  </code></pre>
