[Javascript] document.selection.clear()

Thu Sep 23 12:46:41 CDT 2004

Hi

I found the solution to the problem I had this morning.
I updated the file containing the examples
http://www.be-lovely.co.uk/examples/img_edit/default.html and you can found
the code below.
I guess you guy can continue to worry about what ASCII codes are now.

Regards Laurent

var objselected = null;

function image_context_menu(obj){
	objselected = obj;
	imgToolMenu.style.left = event.clientX;
	imgToolMenu.style.top = event.clientY;
	imgToolMenu.style.visibility = 'visible';
}

function delete_img(){
	if(objselected)
	{
		var r = document.body.createControlRange();
		r.add(objselected);
		r.select();
		objselected = null;
		imgToolMenu.style.visibility = 'hidden';
	}
	document.selection.clear();
}

Hi 

I'm trying to built a small text editor for a content management system I'm
building.
The challenge I got is pretty simple in my editable area I got some
graphics.
On this graphics I did trigger the right click event(oncontextmenu) the
image on the top is showing a small layer with the option to delete the
picture but when I click on the delete option in my small menu I lose the
selection on the graphics and can't delete it, the image on the bottom is
directly calling a function to delete the current graphics.

Please any help or link will be more then welcome.

found the example below describing what my challenge is 
http://www.be-lovely.co.uk/examples/img_edit/default.html

or their is the code

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
function image_context_menu(){
	imgToolMenu.style.left = event.clientX;
	imgToolMenu.style.top = event.clientY;
	imgToolMenu.style.visibility = 'visible';
}

function delete_img(){
	document.selection.clear();
}
