Deeper into the rabbit hole: Gmail scripting part 3!
I have discovered that the “reply” editing area is not always named “hc_0” or “ta_0“. No, the number following the underscore can be other numbers — it seems to correspond to the index of message in the conversation.
This gets more complex, because I forgot that more than one reply editing area can be open at the same time! And they can be of different types (i.e. rich or plain text)! So now not only do we have to find the editing area(s), we have to determine which one has the current focus. So far, I’ve not been able to find a way to determine what element has the focus, using JavaScript, on a page I didn’t create. Hmmm…!
More later…
