找到了这个解决方案。不是基于jquery的,但是将其集成到jquery中没有问题:
/*
** Returns the caret (cursor) position of the specified text field (oField).
** Return value range is 0-oField.value.length.
*/
function dogetcaretposition (oField) {
// Initialize
var iCaretPos = 0;
// IE Support
if (document.selection) {
// Set focus on the element
oField.focus();
// To get cursor position, get empty selection range
var oSel = document.selection.createRange();
// Move selection start to 0 position
oSel.moveStart('character', -oField.value.length);
// The caret position is selection length
iCaretPos = oSel.text.length;
}
// Firefox support
else if (oField.selectionStart || oField.selectionStart == '0')
iCaretPos = oField.selectionDirection=='backward' ? oField.selectionStart : oField.selectionEnd;
// Return results
return iCaretPos;
}
