The Range
object represents a fragment of a document that can contain nodes and parts of text nodes in a given document.
A range can be created using the createRange
method of the Document
object. Range objects can also be retrieved by using thegetRangeAt
method of the Selection
object.
Range.setStart方法
If the startNode
is a Node
of type Text
, Comment
, or CDATASection
, then startOffset
is the number of characters from the start of startNode
. For other Node
types,startOffset
is the number of child nodes between the start of the startNode
.
Setting the start point below (further down in the document) than the end point will throw an NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE
exception.
