I've already read the former article "How to get cursor position or location from RichTextArea in GWT". And the solution work so far. After my implementation I was able to track the cursorposition as long as I wrote a single line.
I have no clue how to alter the solution to track the cursor position over more than one line.
Error-example:
"My name is Tharmar.|" Position = 19(19) => correct
"My name is Tharmar.
and I hope someone can help me|" Position = 30(49) => incorrect
(int) = correct position
|=cursor
I would like to alter the solution to get the "absolute" position of the curser within the RichTextArea. Is there a possibility to aggregate the positions (19+30)?
Can someone help me or point me in the right direction?
FYI: I have no experience with JavaScript!
