Although it seems useless to you now, and you will be looking for information everywhere when you need to use it, you might as well collect it now.
It is troublesome to operate the characters in the textarea in the DOM.
So I have this package to share with you. It has been tested on IE6,8, firefox, chrome, opera, and safari. Compatibility is no problem.
Note: There is a bug when adding a string under Firefox, that is, scrollTop will be equal to 0. Of course, it is solved, but it is not perfect. If there are experts who have studied it, please give some advice.
