## README

Viewport-based (fixed) caret position for HTML input and textarea elements. This project is based on [textarea-caret-position](https://github.com/component/textarea-caret-position).

```
npm i caret-xy
```

or

```
yarn add caret-xy
```

## API

```javascript
caretXY(element, position)
```

- `element` input or textarea DOM element.
- `position` is an integer indicating the location of the caret (defaults to `element.selectionEnd`).

## Sample

```javascript
import caretXY from 'caret-xy'

const input = document.querySelector('input')
caretXY(input)
```

## Known Issue

- Does not work properly for `<input type="email"/>`, `<input type="password"/>` (`element.selectionEnd` always returns `null`).
