1) make sure your cfc function that processes the textarea content has
access="remote"
2) create a button on your page to click to pass the textarea content to
your cfc function
3) add onclick="showContent('id-of-your-textarea-here');" to this button
(replace 'id-of-your-textarea-here' with actual ID of your textarea!)
4) put this showContent js function into HEAD section of your page,
making any necessary changes to it as per comments:
<script type="text/javascript">
var showContent = function(id) {
$.get(
"path/to/yourcfc.cfc?method=yourCfcFunctionName&content="+$("#"+id).val(),
// amend as necessary
function(data) {
//code here to do whatever you need with returned formatted content
//the returned content will be in js variable 'data'
},
'json' // change to data type of returnformat of your cfc fucntion
);
};
</script>
