        </h:form>
    </div>

    <script language="javascript">footer();</script>

</h:body>
</html>

and my Bean class is 

package com.denso.rms.beans;

import java.awt.Window;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;


import com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.resources.windows;

public class EditorBean {     
    private String value; 


    public String getValue() {      
        return value;  
    }  

    public void setValue(String value) {

        this.value = value;         
    }  
    public String test() {
        System.out.println("Value is-" +value);
        return value;
    }       

}

Also i did entry in faces-config.xml

Basic problem is if I try print “value” it shows nothing. If i remove Editor then it works fine. So problem is in <h:inputtextarea> of editor because when i try to print the same value in getter and setter, its showing nothing.
what I am missing?

    That’s because it’s not a textarea any longer. It’s replaced with an iframe (and whatnot), and the serialize function only gets data from form fields.Problem jquery and tinymce : textarea value doesn’t submit

    So you have to extract its value before posting to server

    One approach could be adding the following to the submit h:commandBttonon

    onclick="tinyMCE.triggerSave();"

    Or

    onclick="$('#form\\:input').tinymce().save();"

    If this one wont work than the following solution will (is is better INMO)

    Modify your h:commandButton like this

     <h:commandButton onclick="save_and_add();return false;" id="button" 
     value="Savebutton"></h:commandButton>

    this is the content of the js function

    function save_and_add(){
    tinyMCE.triggerSave();
    $('#form\\:button2').click();
};

    now add another hidden button that will do the actual submit

    <h:commandButton id="button2" style="display:none;"
 action="#{EditorBean.test}"></h:commandButton>
