I am attaching a JavaScript "Patch" that can be used as a work around for the 
range object.  This patch adds support for the following:
    Range.innerHTML - read only
    Range.extractContents - as per W3C specs
    Range.cloneContents - as per W3C specs
    Range.insertNode - as per W3C specs
    Range.surroundContents - as per W3C specs
    Range.deleteContents - as per W3C specs - fixes buggy support from Mozilla
    Range.jmyCompareNode - extends Mozilla's compareNode to include
                           the following 2 constants
    Range.NODE_BEFORE_AND_INSIDE = -1;
    Range.NODE_INSIDE_AND_AFTER = -2;

I would like a C++ programmer to implement these in C if possible.
