This is an outstanding issue which is blocked on getting a new DOM Range spec that is defined in enough detail that we can then define execCommand() in terms of a set of generic range operations. Since we have no editor working on DOM Range, there's no ETA for this. It's on my list of things to work on, but I doubt I'll get to it in the next couple of years, given the other (relatively more important) things on that list. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
