Javascript integration and returning a stored value

Hi there, I have recently implemented the fckEditor into an application that I am building.
I have ran into an issue whereby my editor has text inserted by default, which is obtained from a database.
I have an onclick event for my save button that when this is clicked it returns the value of my editor ie the text within. (this is temporary so i can see what content returns).

my issue is that when I click the button it only ever returns the already present content, if I type additional text into the editor it doesnt pick this up at all.

If anyone could shed some light on this issue I would be greatly appreciative.

Thanks in advance

EDIT: This has now been resolved. Thanks anyways
