Hello there, I need some help here in finding out how many characters the first character of a given node is offset from a parent node. In the simplest case, for the following:
<div id="root">Hello<span>world!</span></div> I want a way to figure out that the "w" in the span is offset from the div by 5 characters. I attempted at DOM traversal and finding the .text() property of each node leading upto the target node and then summing up the length of all the texts...but it was sort of beyond me to get that working. I would appreciate any help with regard to this.. is there any easier way to achieve this. Regards, Kishore.
