No, you can’t. See Selecting and manipulating CSS pseudo-elements such as ::before and ::after using jQuery. To repeat what is described there, generated content is not part of the DOM. In the words of the CSS2.1 spec, Generated content does not alter the document tree. Generated content only exists in the visual world of the … Read more
I fear you can’t prevent the selection itself being “native behavior” of the browser, but you can clear the selection right after it’s made: <script type=”text/javascript”> document.ondblclick = function(evt) { if (window.getSelection) window.getSelection().removeAllRanges(); else if (document.selection) document.selection.empty(); } </script> Edit: to also prevent selecting whole paragraph by “triple click”, here is the required code: var … Read more
Take a look at the DOM Range spec. You can get a Range from the user selection in Firefox using: var range = window.getSelection().getRangeAt(0); Note that some browsers, including Firefox, allow multiple selections, which can be accessed via the getRangeAt() method of the selection. The Range is expressed in terms of DOM nodes and offsets … Read more
In IE >= 9 and non-IE browsers (Firefox 4+, WebKit browsers released since early 2009, Opera 11, maybe earlier), you can use the getClientRects() method of Range. In IE 4 – 10, you can use the boundingLeft and boundingTop properties of the TextRange that can be extracted from the selection. Here’s a function that will … Read more

To make it work you must follow ALL the following rules: Following Ed Ball’s suggestion’, on you XAML command databinding, define CommandParameter property BEFORE … Read more
If the selection is completely contained within a single text node, you can do this using the surroundContents() method of the range you obtain from the selection. However, this is very brittle: it does not work if the selection cannot logically be surrounded in a single element (generally, if the range crosses node boundaries, although … Read more
You had two problems: 1) The order in which you included the HTML. Try changing the dropdown from “onLoad” to “no wrap – head” in the JavaScript settings of your fiddle. 2) Your function prints the values. What you’re actually after is the text x.options[i].text; instead of x.options[i].value; http://jsfiddle.net/WfBRr/5/
Below is a function to set the selection to a pair of character offsets within a particular element. This is naive implementation: it does not take into account any text that may be made invisible (either by CSS or by being inside a <script> or <style> element, for example) and may have browser discrepancies (IE … Read more
