tinyMCE.get("content") is undefined

I get this message : tinyMCE.get("message_data_" + msg_id) is undefined on Firebug after I click on the button to submit the form.

msg_id is defined, I checked it. message_data_ is also defined. The function tinyMCE.get is not for some reason.

If you do not have control over init method of TinyMCE then, you can follow this solution. Basically it adds a fallback if TinyMCE is not initialized.

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

    function myCustomSetContent( id, content ) {
        // Check if TinyMCE is defined or not.
        if( typeof tinymce != "undefined" ) {
            var editor = tinymce.get( id );
            // Check if TinyMCE is initialized properly or not.
            if( editor && editor instanceof tinymce.Editor ) {
                editor.setContent( text );
                editor.save( { no_events: true } );
            } else {
                // Fallback
                // If TinyMCE is not initialized then directly set the value in textarea.
                //TinyMCE will take up this value when it gets initialized.
                jQuery( '#'+id ).val( text );
            }
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

    function myCustomGetContent( id ) {
        // Check if TinyMCE is defined or not.
        if( typeof tinymce != "undefined" ) {
            var editor = tinymce.get( id );
            // Check if TinyMCE is initialized properly or not.
            if( editor && editor instanceof tinymce.Editor ) {
                return editor.getContent();
            } else {
                // Fallback
                // If TinyMCE is not initialized then directly set the value in textarea.
                // TinyMCE will take up this value when it gets initialized.
                return jQuery( '#'+id ).val();
            }
        }
        return '';
    }

    $(".class-to-update-content").on("click", function(e) {
        myCustomSetContent( "tinymce-editor-id", "New Content in Editor" );
    });

    $(".class-to-get-content").on("click", function(e) {
        $("div.class-to-display-content").html( myCustomGetContent( "tinymce-editor-id" ) );
    });
});

if you are using multiple editor in a form then you can create a function and get its value i.e.

// Declare a function to get editor value
function tinyMca_text(field_id) {

 if ( jQuery("#"+field_id+":hidden").length > 0)
 {
 return tinyMCE.get(field_id).getContent();
 }
 else
 {
  return jQuery('#'+field_id).val();
 }

}

// show that value

console.log(tinyMca_text('field'));

If you are using one single editor instance you may use tinymce.editors[0] instead of tinyMCE.get("message_data_" + msg_id).
