I'm looking for a way to get the offset relative to the whole document for a given node with Javascript. Eg.:
<html><head></head><body><div id="mainContent"><h1 id="myTitle">Title</h1><p>First paragraph</p><p>Second <b>paragraph</b></p></div></body></html>
Then (using JQuery):
$("#myTitle").getDocumentOffset()
should return 47 because the h1 with id myTitle starts at offset 47 in characters relative to the whole document.
Any idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.
