cross browser compare document position

DOM4 compareDocumentPosition

I want to implement compareDocumentPosition. Resig has made a great start at doing just this. I've taken his code and neatened it up

function compareDocumentPosition(other) {
    var ret = 0;
    if (this.contains) {
        if (this !== other && this.contains(other)) {
            ret += 16;
        }
        if (this !== other && other.contains(this)) {
            ret += 8;
        }
        if (this.sourceIndex >= 0 && other.sourceIndex >= 0) {
            if (this.sourceIndex < other.sourceIndex) {
                ret += 4;
            }
            if (this.sourceIndex > other.sourceIndex) {
                ret += 2;
            }
        } else {
            ret += 1;
        }
    } 
    return ret;
}

This works for Element but does not for Text or DocumentFragment. This is because IE8 does not give .sourceIndex on those nodes. (It doesn't give .contains either but I've fixed that problem already)

How do I efficiently write the +=4 and +=2 bit which correspond to DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING and DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING.

For extra reference those two are defined by tree-order which DOM4 defines as

An object A is preceding an object B if A and B are in the same tree and A comes before B in tree order.

An object A is following an object B if A and B are in the same tree and A comes after B in tree order.

The tree order is preorder, depth-first traversal.

Most modern browsers implement this (including IE9). So you only need something that works in IE8 (I don't care about IE6/7, but if it works awesome!)

function recursivelyWalk(nodes, cb) {
    for (var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++) {
        var node = nodes[i];
        var ret = cb(node);
        if (ret) {
            return ret;
        }
        if (node.childNodes && node.childNodes.length) {
            var ret = recursivelyWalk(node.childNodes, cb);
            if (ret) {
                return ret;
            }
        }
    }
}

function testNodeForComparePosition(node, other) {
    if (node === other) {
        return true;
    }
}

function compareDocumentPosition(other) {
    function identifyWhichIsFirst(node) {
        if (node === other) {
            return "other";
        } else if (node === reference) {
            return "reference";
        }
    }

    var reference = this,
        referenceTop = this,
        otherTop = other;

    if (this === other) {
        return 0;
    }
    while (referenceTop.parentNode) {
        referenceTop = referenceTop.parentNode;
    }
    while (otherTop.parentNode) {
        otherTop = otherTop.parentNode;
    }

    if (referenceTop !== otherTop) {
        return Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_DISCONNECTED;
    }

    var children = reference.childNodes;
    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        children,
        testNodeForComparePosition.bind(null, other)
    );
    if (ret) {
        return Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY +
            Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING;
    }

    var children = other.childNodes;
    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        children, 
        testNodeForComparePosition.bind(null, reference)
    );
    if (ret) {
        return Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS +
            Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING;
    }

    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        [referenceTop],
        identifyWhichIsFirst
    );
    if (ret === "other") {
        return Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING;
    } else {
        return Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING;
    }
}

I wrote it myself. I thought this implementation was bugged but it was a bug in some other code of mine. Seems pretty solid.

The answer from Raynos is a top start, but is not runnable out of the box. Node.* cannot be found and .bind is not available in IE8.

Here is the code ready for use in Internet Explorer 8:

function recursivelyWalk(nodes, cb) {
    for (var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++) {
        var node = nodes[i];
        var ret = cb(node);
        if (ret) {
            return ret;
        }
        if (node.childNodes && node.childNodes.length) {
            var ret = recursivelyWalk(node.childNodes, cb);
            if (ret) {
                return ret;
            }
        }
    }
}

function testNodeForComparePosition(node, other) {
    if (node === other) {
        return true;
    }
}

var DOCUMENT_POSITION_DISCONNECTED = 1;
var DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING = 2;
var DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING = 4;
var DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS = 8;
var DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY = 16;

function compareDocumentPosition(thisNode, other) {
    function identifyWhichIsFirst(node) {
        if (node === other) {
            return "other";
        } else if (node === reference) {
            return "reference";
        }
    }

    var reference = thisNode,
        referenceTop = thisNode,
        otherTop = other;

    if (this === other) {
        return 0;
    }
    while (referenceTop.parentNode) {
        referenceTop = referenceTop.parentNode;
    }
    while (otherTop.parentNode) {
        otherTop = otherTop.parentNode;
    }

    if (referenceTop !== otherTop) {
        return DOCUMENT_POSITION_DISCONNECTED;
    }

    var children = reference.childNodes;
    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        children,
        function(p) {
            (function() {
                var localOther = other;
                return testNodeForComparePosition(localOther, p);
            })();
        }
    );
    if (ret) {
        return DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY +
            DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING;
    }

    var children = other.childNodes;
    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        children,
        function(p) {
            (function() {
                var localOther = reference;
                return testNodeForComparePosition(localOther, p);
            })();
        }
    );
    if (ret) {
        return DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS +
            DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING;
    }

    var ret = recursivelyWalk(
        [referenceTop],
        identifyWhichIsFirst
    );
    if (ret === "other") {
        return DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING;
    } else {
        return DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING;
    }
}

You call it like this:

compareDocumentPosition(sourceElement, elementToTest)

(It's like calling sourceElement.compareDocumentPosition(elementToTest))
