[jQuery] Inserting text in IE8

[jQuery] Inserting text in IE8


My problem isn't strictly jquery but more javaScript.
In IE6, 7 i can insert text on a range using pasteHTML().
in IE8 i can only pasteHTML() when text is selected and not when just
the cursor is placed.
see here for very simple example.
