Ill try to explain myself a bit better:


on the previous example, if on the editor you can read
"this is a Link and this is not" <---- the word "Link" with a blue
underline meaning its a external link
the code it will generate is:
"this is a Link and
this is not"

When you are editing an article, and you copy some text (using CTRL-C or
some other way) it only copies the characters, not the properties of those
characters,
so if i drag the mouse over the text and select
"is a Link and" <---- please note that on the editor the word "Link"
has a blue underline meaning its a external link
then i press CTRL-C and insert that text at the end of the text it will
generate:

"this is a Link and this is not is a Link and"

but only the first "Link" will actually be a link..... (and have a blue
underline)
so if i save at this point, it will save

"this is a Link and
this is not is a Link and"

what i need is a function that if i select some text on the editor, it will
not only copy the characters, but also the properties of the text, so that
if i copy that same portion of the text and paste it at then end of the
sentence it will output:

"this is a Link and this is not is a Link and"

and both ocurrences of the word "Link" will have a blue underline so that if
i save them it will output:

"this is a Link and
this is not is a Link and"

am i being clear enough?

ill try to explain it in some other way:

if you write the following in the editor:

"to go to google click here"

then you add an external link to the word here and save. you will see
the code it saves is:

" to go to google click here link>"

if i select the whole the whole sentence, then CTRL-C and then i paste
it to the wordpad or any other aplication it will paste:

"to go to google click here"

but i need it to paste the code that is really inserted into the
database, so if i select the whole the whole sentence, then CTRL-C and then
i paste it to the wordpad or any other aplication it should paste:

" to go to google click here link>"

am i being clear enough??

in few words, i need a function that given a selection start, and a
selection end it returns the "html" of that selection.


hope that helps to clear stuff.

Regards
