When I click on the text in the div element i am able to modify the selection. However this is not possible with a link element. Is there a way I can make this work without modifying the html?
document.addEventListener('click', click, true)
function click(e) {
e.preventDefault()
}
setInterval(() => {
let selection = window.getSelection();
selection.modify('extend', 'forward', "documentboundary");
}, 100);<div>text in div tag</div>
<a href="">text in a tag</a>>Solution :
Does this work?

}
setInterval(() => {
let selection = window.getSelection();
selection.modify('extend', 'forward', "documentboundary");
}, 100);a {
user-select: text;
}<div>text in div tag</div>
<a href="">text in a tag</a>
