"Active content" is just a term I made up, as I said it's pages with "HTML _and_ JavaScript", mixed together. Loading in things via AJAX is a very different environment to the usual "load a page in the browser, run the JavaScript" scenario. Many scripts aren't built to cope with this.
If you need to load in a WYSIWYG then load the script into the page (you could use $.getScript()) and then "apply" the editor two the various fields you need to be WYSIWYGified. If you want to make the pages publicly accessible (which is quite reasonable), I suggest you "cut down" the pages to the smallest size you can, while keeping them in their "not working" state. Basically just publish a version of the pages that don't work, without all the other stuff (and without anything that's not supposed to be public). Kind of like a "unit test". Of course this is also a good way of debugging code, and usually quickly shows you what's actually causing the problem.
