Hi Derrell, the old API had all these methods, see http://demo.qooxdoo.org/0.7.x/apiviewer/#qx.ui.form.TextField however, they were available only for the TextField and TextArea. The new selection API has been abstracted from the actual HTML element and is applicable, it seems to me, to any kind of element that supports text selection - probably DIV's as well, but I am not sure, because I stopped somewhere in the qx.bom section where the code became really complex. ;-) So if this is to be re-implemented, you need an expert .... I need it because I want to re-implement the complex and server-fed auto-complete behavior that I had in qcl for 0.7. But as you suggest, I'll have a look at the 0.7 qooxdoo code to see how the previous API worked.
