How to get clean data without syntax highlighting and pass it to the form?

[ilyapokrov]

I have a form with a text field with the text php.
I want to get this php code, having previously highlighted the syntax using AceEdit, make some adjustments, and then pass the resulting php code without this highlighting.

{!! Form::open(['route' => 'functions']) !!}

<div id="function-coloring">
   {{ Form::textarea('functions', $functions, ['class' => 'form-control']) }}
</div>

<script>
   ace.edit("function-coloring", {
      printMargin: false,
      theme: "ace/theme/textmate",
      mode: "ace/mode/php",
      showLineNumbers: true,
      wrap: true,
   });
</script>

<div class="form-group p-0 my-3">
   {!! Form::submit('Сохранить', ['class' => 'btn btn-success']) !!}
</div>

{!! Form::close() !!}

How to convert to pure code without highlighting and pass the resulting text to submit?

You could do something like this

Editor.getValue()
