Hi - in the latest version of the MVC Rich Text Editor the ej2_instances object appears to be missing. It was there in the previous version - but at the moment I am having to directly access the underlying DOM objects under the parent control in order to access the html value of the control like so...

        update = $('#newComment_rte-edit-view').html();

...where the id of the parent control is "newComment".

Is this an oversight or is there a new way of accessing the control's value?

Hi Charles, 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We were able to replicate the reported issue in our end and we are considering this as a defect. The fix for this issue will be included in our upcoming 2018 Volume 4 release. Meanwhile, we can access the RTE’s value from the value property using the instance which can be obtained as demonstrated in the following code. 

<script type="text/javascript"> 
// ‘new comment’ is the ID attribute, you need to append ‘-value’ at the end. 
    var rteObj = document.getElementById('newComment' + '-value').ej2_instances[0]; 
    alert(rteObj.value); 
</script> 

Please note the above workaround solution will work only till this issue is fixed (i.e.) till 2018 volume 4 release. After the fix you can take the instance directly using the ID attribute. 

Regards, 
Prince
