<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<string>" %>


<script src="<%=Url.Content("~/Scripts/ckeditor/ckeditor.js")%>" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
        var CurrName = $(".ckeditor").attr("name");
        CKEDITOR.replace(CurrName, { width: "800" });

Answer 1

Try replacing Class by @class:

<%= Html.TextArea("", Model, 10, 40, new { @class = "ckeditor" }) %>
