The old version of the question is below, after researching more, I decided to rephrase the question. The problem as before is, I need to focus a contenteditable div without highlighting the text, doing straight up focus highlights the text in Chrome.
I realize that people solved this problems in textareas by resetting the caret position in the textarea. How can I do that with a contenteditable element? All the plugins I've tried only works with textareas. Thanks.
Old Phrasing of the question:
I have a contenteditable element that
I want to focus, but only insofar as
to place the cursor at the front of
the element, rather selecting
everything.
elem.trigger('focus'); with jquery
selects all the text in the entire
element in chrome. Firefox behaves
correctly, setting the caret at the
front of the text. How can I get
Chrome to behave the way I want, or is
focus perhaps not what I'm looking
for.
Thanks
