How to get the value of Codemirror textarea

codemirror, javascript

Solution

Try using `getValue()` instead of `getCode()`.

Pass in an optional argument into getValue(separator) to specify the string to be used to separate lines (the default is `\n`).

Problem

I am using Codemirror's plugin for textarea but I am not able to retrieve the value of textarea. Code: ``` var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById("code"), { lineNumbers: true, matchBrackets: true, mode: "text/x-csrc" }); function showCode() { var text = editor.mirror.getCode(); alert(text); } ``` It is showing the error: ``` editor.getCode() is not a function. ```
