object HTMLTextAreaElement javascript response
html, javascript, jquery, textarea, tinymce
Solution
You are getting the textarea element itself. To get its value, add `.value`.
Problem
Why can't I get the content in a tinymce textarea through Javascript/Jquery? With all the things I've tried, it has always given me `[object HTMLTextAreaElement]` As a response. What am I doing wrong? Javascript: ``` function changeText2(){ var content = tinyMCE.getContent('content'); } alert(content); ``` HTML: ``` <textarea id="content" onkeyup='changeText2()' name="page" cols="50" rows="15"> tinymce editable content in here </textarea> ```
