What I am trying to achieve
I am building input-like content editable div. You are supposed to click some tags outside the div to add them inside the div while also being able to type around said tags.
The problem and how to reproduce it
I am using user-select: none (normal and webkit) to keep tag buttons from being selected, therefore losing my caret's position. It works in Firefox and Chrome but not in Safari (I aware of the -webkit- prefix and using it).
Here is a fiddle where you can reproduce the problem.
What I've tried
The root of my problem was maintaining the caret's position while leaving the content editable div.
I have previously tried to use rangy but got stuck in some limitations regarding Firefox. These limitations where quite annoying from an UX standpoint. You can check my previous question and how it got me here, to this user-select: none solution -Caret disappears in Firefox when saving its position with Rangy
That's how I got to this solution featuring user-select: none.
My components/JS:
new Vue({
el: "#app",
data(){
return {
filters_toggled: false,
fake_input_content: '',
input_length: 0,
typed: false,
boolean_buttons: [{

var node = document.createElement('img');
node.src = $event.img;
node.className = "boolean-button--img boolean-button--no-margin";
node.addEventListener('click', (event) => {

this.$refs.divInput.removeChild(node);
})
this.insertNode(node);
this.saveCursorLocation($event);
},
clearHtmlElem($event){
var i = 0;
var temp = $event.target.querySelectorAll("span, br");
if(temp.length > 0){
for(i = 0; i < temp.length; i++){
if(!temp[i].classList.contains('rangySelectionBoundary')){
if (temp[i].tagName == "br"){
temp[i].parentNode.removeChild(temp[i]);
} else {
temp[i].outerHTML = temp[i].innerHTML;
}
}
}
}
},

Expected behaviour vs actual results
In Safari (latest version), if I type a word and then click somewhere in that word or move the caret in that word through the keyboard arrows then click one of the tags on the right side of the input, the tag should be added in the middle of clicked word (where was the selection made) but it is added at the beginning of the word.
tl;dr: Safari does not respect the caret's position when clicking one of the tags. It adds the tag at the beginning of the content editable div, not where the caret previously was.
Edit 1: Based on these logs, getSelection() teaches us that the offset is always 0 because in Safari, the div loses focus.
It seems you basically found the answer yourself already. It is a timing issue.
If you change the event to mousedown, the caret position isn't lost and the tag gets inserted at the correct position.
<div id="app">
<div class="input__label-wrap">
<span class="input__label">Cauta</span>
<div style="user-select: none; -webkit-user-select: none">
<span readonly v-on:mousedown="addBooleanTag(b_button)" v-for="b_button in boolean_buttons" class="boolean-buttons">{{b_button.label}}</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="input__boolean input__boolean--no-focus">
<div
@keydown.enter.prevent
@blur="addPlaceholder"
@keyup="saveCursorLocation($event); fixDelete(); clearHtmlElem($event);"
@input="updateBooleanInput($event); clearHtmlElem($event);"
@paste="pasted"
v-on:click="clearPlaceholder(); saveCursorLocation($event);"
class="input__boolean-content"
ref="divInput"
contenteditable="true">Cuvinte cheie, cautare booleana..</div>
</div>
</div>https://jsfiddle.net/xmuzp20o/
If you don't want to add the actual tag on mousedown, then you could save the caret position at least in that event, so that you still have the correct position in the click event.
