Hi Paul,

Marius,
are you anyways depending on rocket-gwt?
No. I was considering using it for its Selection support, but I
discovered this support is limited for what I need.
Although we were enthusiastic about it for
"skills-text-box", I am about
to give it up.
Rocket is mostly the work of one person and some of its features such as
the stacktrace compilation warning kept byting my IDEA away from it,
till impossibility of building.
Rocket is still in 0.x which has made it that the component we use was
actually dropped between 0.4 and 0.5.2... something quite annoying...
So if you have the choice, just be warned.
Thanks for the tip.

PS: isn't w3c range a super modern specification? I think saw trafic
about it on the public-webapp w3c mailing-list recently. This would
explain why it is not implemented everywhere.
Actually Mozilla follows pretty close the W3C Range specification
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/range . Other important browsers are
trying to do the same http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/range_intro.html .
Internet Explorer, of course, doesn't care about specifications.
Best regards,
Marius

is very limited right
now which makes it unusable for WYSIWYG editing (see
