$(function() {
  $('#editor1').keyup(function() {
    $('#hiddenCode').val(parseMe($(this).html()));
    
    // Sample output, which enables you to see the effect
    // Besides, this decodes your HTML entities
    $('#output').html(
      $('#hiddenCode').html(
        $('#hiddenCode').val()
      ).text()
    );
  });

  $('#editor2').keyup(function() {
    $('#hiddenCode2').val(parseMe($(this).html()));
  });

  // This will encode your HTML input
  function parseMe(value) {
    return value.replace(/&/g, '&amp;').replace(/</g, '&lt;').replace(/>/g, '&gt;');
  }

To hide those textareas above, just put the hidden attribute

If you hit the submit button, you can freely get the data because of those textareas. You can access them with their name attrubites.
