hi all!

i wonder how i could do this using jquery's dom-traversing:

in IE6 i do:

1. select one word in text with the mouse
2. get selection and create range
3. clone this range twice, collapse one copy to left and the other to right
4. insert span (id='left_boundary) at left, and span
(id='right_boundary' at right
5. try $('#left_boundary').next()[0].nodeName, get "SPAN" -> it skips the text
    but $('#left_boundary')[0].nextSibling.nodeName gives me "#TEXT_NODE"

why cant i use jquery to access TEXT_NODES? or: what can i do to get it working?
