Answer 1

I don't know why it doesn't work

It's not working because

console.debug(tinyMCE.activeEditor.getContent());

tinymce.activeEditor.getContent();

these statements are not being executed.

Try to follow this FIDDLE ....

tinyMCE.init({
        // General options
        mode : "specific_textareas",
        editor_selector : "mceEditor"
});

Function for getting content ....

function get_editor_content() {
  // Get the HTML contents of the currently active editor
  console.debug(tinyMCE.activeEditor.getContent());
  //method1 getting the content of the active editor
  alert(tinyMCE.activeEditor.getContent());
  //method2 getting the content by id of a particular textarea
  alert(tinyMCE.get('myarea1').getContent());
}

Get the content of editor on button click ...
