TinyMCE content blank on MVC Post Action

Question

I have a standard form with a textbox with tinymce invoked. All is well however when I post to my action the FormCollection for that field is blank. I have set ValidateInput to false just in case but still blank. I believe the issue is because I am posting using the jQuery Form plugin.

Thanks

You have to tell the TinyMCE editor to save the contents back to the textarea before post.

 $('#btnSave').click( function(){
        tinyMCE.triggerSave(true,true);
        $('#myform').submit();
    });
