Answer 1

If you want to get the text value of currently selected text in the visual editor:

var content = jQuery("#content_ifr").prop("contentWindow");
var selected = content.getSelection();
var selectedText = selected.toString();

If you want to replace the selected text with a new value, just use this in addition to the above variables:

var newText = "This is the new text";
jQuery(selected.anchorNode).replaceWith(newText);

Or in your case of wanting to use a link:

var linkText = "<a href='yourlink.html'>"+selectedText+"</a>";
jQuery(selected.anchorNode).replaceWith(linkText);

Answer 2

Easy way using the tinymce API:

Getting the selection

tinymce.get('your_editor_id').selection

Replacing the selection

tinymce.get('your_editor_id').execCommand('insertHTML',false,'your text')
