Question

I have a contentEditable div which in some cases gets display: none, then again display: block (inline-block), I use div.focus() when display is set to block, but cursor is at the beggining of the text and I can’t change its position to end on Chrome.

How can I make it to set cursor at the end, when the div gets focus?

This uses jQuery but can be generalised to normal JavaScript. The important part is:

var range = document.createRange(),
    selection = window.getSelection();

range.setStartAfter(div.lastChild); // set cursor

selection.removeAllRanges();
selection.addRange(range); // apply cursor position
