Answer 1

You need to URLEncode your text:

JavaScript:

var html_sN6VmIGq = escape($("#64").html());
//now use your function for saving the item

PHP:

$decodedVar = urldecode($yourEncodedVarHere);

Answer 2

You probably need to call encodeURI on your somewhat bizarrely named variables:

$('#saveupdate').load('modulus/empty/actions.php?act=save_text&pid=1&div_id=64&div_txt='+encodeURI(html_sN6VmIGq)+'&randval='+ Math.random());

Also, note that the id 64 is invalid, per this comment from W3Schools:

[ids must] begin with a letter A-Z or a-z followed by: letters (A-Za-z), digits (0-9), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods (".").
