Bower
bower install highlighter.js
npm
npm install highlighter.js
Usage
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",function(){varHighlighter=newwindow.Highlighter();Highlighter.next('<div>');Highlighter.underline();window.console.log('Highlighter underlined this element:',Highlighter.element);});
If you want a different highlighter color set the option{ color:'#cc0011'}
varHighlighter=newwindow.Highlighter({'color':'blue'//you can use any CSS valid color value});
Exclude hidden/invisible elements
Sometime you could need to work only on visible/viewable elements, so, to skip invisible or hidden elements, set the option{ viewable:true}
varHighlighter=newwindow.Highlighter({'viewable':true//this way Highlighter.js will exclude/avoid selecting or highlighting hidden/invisible elements});
Scroll to the underlined element
Sometime you could need to scroll to the current underlined element, so, to automatically scroll to it once is underlined you can set the options{scroll:true, scrollDuration: 500 }
varHighlighter=newwindow.Highlighter({'scroll':true,//Automatically scroll to the underlined element'scrollDuration':500//milliseconds});
Events
There is a set of events that you could use for your needs.
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:selected',function(evt){console.log('This element has been selected',evt.eventData);});
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:underlined',function(evt){console.log('This element has been underlined',evt.eventData);});
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:erased',function(evt){console.log('This element has been erased',evt.eventData);});
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:skipped',function(){console.log('Elements were skipped');});
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:scrolled',function(evt){console.log('Scrolled to this element',evt.eventData);});
window.addEventListener('Highlighter:restart',function(){console.log('Highlighter restarted from the first DOM element');});
Gtk
Not yet 100% ready for production
If your element/s hasoutline: CSS rule setted up, there could be problems or maybe not.
isVisible() control need a deep check, it could probably mistake at any time
Scroller is a bit horrible atm
If no selectable next elements, Highlighter will restart from the first element in DOM
If no selectable previous elements, Highlighter will restart from the first element in DOM
