htmlsplitter

Usage

You need html content to split into DOM node :

$.get('contentHTML.html',function(data){
        alltext = $(document.createElement('HTML')).html(data)[0];
        ...

      });

Get content from start DOM to first result of needle

  var result = document.createElement('div');
  HtmlSplitter.splitTo(alltext.querySelector('body'), result, "#chapter1_3");

Get content from needle1 to needle2, excluding content of node with needle2

  var result2 = document.createElement('div');
  HtmlSplitter.splitFromTo(alltext.querySelector('body'), result2, "#chapter1_3", "#chapter1_3_2");

To get content from needle to last node you can omit needle2

  var result3 = document.createElement('div');
  HtmlSplitter.splitFromTo(alltext.querySelector('body'), result3, "#chapter1_4_1");
      });
