I have a navigation menu out side ckeditor and i want to navigate within the editor as all my element in editor have ids
scrollIntoView
how does this work
any example will be good
A:
The information in this question (asked by myself some months ago) should get you started. The accepted answer outlines how to access elements inside the CKEditor document programmatically from JQUery.
It should be possible to fetch the desired element, and do a ScrollIntoView based on that.
This might already work (untested):
var documentWrapper = editorname.document; // replace by your CKEDitor instance ID
var documentNode = documentWrapper.$; // or documentWrapper['$'] ;
documentNode.getElementById("id").scrollIntoView(); // Insert your element ID there

Can you try `(editorname).document.getById()`?

Can focus() be used in any to assist in this problem or show().

Are you 100% sure your editor instance is name CKEDITOR? What happens if you use the code in my answer, remove the last line, open a Firebug console and say `console.log(documentNode);`? Can you post the line with which you initialize the CKeditor?

Regarding focus() or show(): No, you need to get hold of the element first

The console.log needs to be after when you create `documentNode` in the example above. And re CKEDITOR, that is *not necessarily* your *editor instance*. You need to access the variable name of your *editor instance*.
