    The text editor must be adding some content (like some blank spaces). Try throwing an alert box with the content. Trim the blank spaces before validation.
    Here is some code for trimming the blank space:
    
function str_trim(strIn)
{
    return strIn.replace(/^\s\s*/, '').replace(/\s\s*$/, '');
}
    Code (markup):
