Maybe I am misunderstanding the question, but can you not just click on the PREVIEW button (it is in the standard default settings of the FCKeditor)?

So if i wanted it in a page how would i call it?

Somthing like???

<html>
<head>

<script type="text/javascript">
function extPreview( editorInstance ) {
FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('YOURINSTANCE').Commands.GetCommand('Preview').Execute();
}
</script>

<body>

<button id="preview" type="button"> preview</button>

</body>

<html>

I'm in the same boat. Short of rewriting the Javascript that represents the preview function, you can't. You can however write an external plugin to pull the content into an external template. I'm working on that myself, if/when i get it working I can send it on to you.
