Constructor Detail

TextRange

public TextRange()

Default constructor used to build the prototype.

TextRange

public TextRange(Element elt)

Constructs a text range around the provided element.

Parameters:

elt - the element to wrap

TextRange

public TextRange(org.w3c.dom.ranges.Range range)

Constructs a text range around the provided range.

Parameters:

range - the initial range

Method Detail

getText

public String getText()

Retrieves the text contained within the range.

Returns:

the text contained within the range

setText

public void setText(String text)

Sets the text contained within the range.

Parameters:

text - the text contained within the range

getHtmlText

public String getHtmlText()

Retrieves the HTML fragment contained within the range.

Returns:

the HTML fragment contained within the range

duplicate

public Object duplicate()

Duplicates this TextRange instance.

Returns:

a duplicate of this TextRange instance

See Also:

MSDN documentation

parentElement

public Node parentElement()

Retrieves the parent element for the given text range. The parent element is the element that completely encloses the text in the range. If the text range spans text in more than one element, this method returns the smallest element that encloses all the elements. When you insert text into a range that spans multiple elements, the text is placed in the parent element rather than in any of the contained elements.

Returns:

the parent element object if successful, or null otherwise.

MSDN doc

collapse

public void collapse(boolean toStart)

Collapses the range.

Parameters:

toStart - indicates if collapse should be done to the start

See Also:

MSDN doc

select

public void select()

Makes the current range the active selection.

See Also:

MSDN doc

moveStart

public int moveStart(String unit,
                     Object count)

Changes the start position of the range.

Parameters:

unit - specifies the units to move

count - the number of units to move

Returns:

the number of units moved

move

public int move(String unit,
                Object count)

Collapses the given text range and moves the empty range by the given number of units.

Parameters:

unit - specifies the units to move

count - the number of units to move

Returns:

the number of units moved

moveEnd

public int moveEnd(String unit,
                   Object count)

Parameters:

unit - specifies the units to move

count - the number of units to move

Returns:

the number of units moved

moveToElementText

public void moveToElementText(HTMLElement element)

Moves the text range so that the start and end positions of the range encompass the text in the specified element.

Parameters:

element - the element to move to

See Also:

MSDN Documentation

Indicates if a range is contained in current one.

Parameters:

other - the other range

Returns:

true if other is contained within current range

MSDN doc

setEndPoint

public void setEndPoint(String type,
                        TextRange other)

Sets the endpoint of the range based on the endpoint of another range..

Parameters:

type - end point transfer type. One of "StartToEnd", "StartToStart", "EndToStart" and "EndToEnd"

other - the other range

See Also:

MSDN doc

getBookmark

public String getBookmark()

Retrieves a bookmark (opaque string) that can be used with moveToBookmark(java.lang.String) to return to the same range. The current implementation return empty string

Returns:

the bookmark

moveToBookmark

public boolean moveToBookmark(String bookmark)

Moves to a bookmark. The current implementation does nothing

Parameters:

bookmark - the bookmark

Returns:

false

public int compareEndPoints(String how,
                            TextRange sourceRange)

Compares an end point of a TextRange object with an end point of another range.

Parameters:

how - how to compare

sourceRange - the other range

Returns:

the result
