  To get access to control instance on the client, you use the control property on the DOM element it self as follows:

  <script type="text/javascript"> //considering the editor is loaded.

  var editorControl = $get("<%=editor.ClientID%>").control; 

  //1. For setting content: 

  editorContorl.set_content("Sample Content"); 

  //2. For getting content: 

  var content = editorContorl.get_content(); </script>

  I really tried, but I believe this is only working for the standard  <cc1:Editor ..../> But, when you use the new <asp:HtmlEditorExtender   ...> it isn't working.

  Does anyone knows the way how to set  and get the date in JavaScript when an standard Textbox is extended with the HtmlEditorExtender like:

  <asp:TextBox ID="txtMessage" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Width="100%" Rows="7"></asp:TextBox>

  <asp:HtmlEditorExtender ID="HtmlEditorExtender1" runat="server" TargetControlID="txtMessage">
