As far as I can tell there's no simple way of retrieving a character offset from a TextRange object in Internet Explorer. The W3C Range object has a node, and the offset into the text within that node. IE seems to just have pixel offsets. There are methods to create, extend and compare ranges, so it would be possible to write an algorith...

I've not gone into much research here, but the intuitive thing is not working: private void SerachButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { String serchTerm = searchTerm1.Text; String text = usualTextBox.Text; Int32 index = text.IndexOf(serchTerm); if (index >= 0) { usualTextBox.Select(index, serchTerm.Length);...
When the program runs, there is a series of ListView forms. We populated one of them with items (as strings) and we check whether the state of selection has changed.

Hello, I am not able to get the selection object's start and end offsets in Opera (v9.50) when the selection is collapsed (i.e. just point and click instead of highlighting text).
