I'm making a content editor, and one of the features is create hyperlink.

If the user has selected an object (text or an image), they can click the link button and a javascript window allows them to enter the URL etc.

Creating a link from the text works fine, but if the user has selected an image, I get an "Invalid argument" javascript error.

The relevant code is:

lnk = document.createElement("A");
top.opener.prevRange(0).applyElement(lnk);

Where prevRange is a textrange created in the opening window's content.

Incidentally, some people may recognise that this code is from the EWE open source WYSIWG editor.
