How do I select all text contained in <pre> using jQuery?
Question
I have a contentEditable iframe with line numbers and text. The line numbers are contained in a div and all text is in a <pre> -element.
It looks like this:
<body>
<div id="line_numbers">
<div>1</div><div>2</div><div>3</div>
</div>
<pre>
Text
</pre>
</body>
Now, when someone presses Ctrl+A everything is selected, including the line numbers. I would like to change this behaviour to only include the contents of the <pre> .
I have set up a function that captures Ctrl+A and prevents the default operation. Now, how do I set the selection to contain everything within the <pre> ?

This answer will help you out I think; you should be able to select the pre element using jQuery and pass it into the function supplied:
SelectText($('pre')[0]);

你有$("#iframe_id").contents().find('pre').text() ？
