Bug - in FireFox accessing current cursor position

Reply Quote

I get this error message in Firefox, not in IE:

editor1.GetSelection().createRange is not a function.

with this code:

var selectedhtml = editor1.GetSelection().createRange().htmlText;

How to fix this?

fredd,

This htmlText Property is supported by IE only.

htmlText Property - Retrieves the HTML source as a valid HTML fragment.

To retrieve the html code from range object, you have to implement your own method for other browsers.

fredd,

Please use the following code:

function getSelectedHTML(){
var rng=null,html="";

      if (document.selection && document.selection.createRange){
        rng=editdoc.selection.createRange();
        html=rng.htmlText||"";
      }else if (window.getSelection){
        rng=editwin.getSelection();

        if (rng.rangeCount > 0 && window.XMLSerializer){
          rng=rng.getRangeAt(0);
          html=new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(rng.cloneContents());
        }
      }
      return html;
    }
