Try this (editor is the instance):

editor.post();
var textAreaHtml = editor.t.value;

Well, the standard way is:

tinyMCE.get('element-ID').getContent();

which element-ID is the id of the textarea used for tinyMCE.

editor.i.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML

this will return value of editor, but this is hack, this is not valid access, as I can see method for getting content doesn't exists.

so "editor" is name of your editor.
