Have implemented the RTE on one of my pages, and have tried several different methods of retrieving the contents to be returned to other fields, but seems it always returns the text which was prepopulated into the textarea, and not the edited version from the RTE.  Does the text always have to be submitted from the form first?

Normally yes, however, have a look at how the 'Preview' button works. It takes the present content of the RTE area and places it into a hidden form field to be read in like a normal form field.

The onclick javascript used to do this is:-

onClick="document.getElementById('pre').value = document.getElementById('WebWizRTE').contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;"


The part below is the bit that gets the RTE areas content:-

document.getElementById('WebWizRTE').contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;
