Hello,
Sorry if my question is not worded properly, I'm new to jQuery and still do not understand its syntax. I've read a lot of examples and it did not help me much. I've got this really simple JS function: function getActiveText(e) { var text = window.getSelection(); alert(text); } That returns the raw selection in an xhtml page. Now I want to limit what it returns to only what is enclosed in divs of the class "selectable". jQuery has the $('div.selectable') selector which selects all <div> elements with a class name of "selectable". What I'm missing is the glue code between my function and jQuery's selector. >From there, I should be able to go further with jQuery. Now I'm just getting confused.
