The Range setEndBefore() method sets the end position of a Range relative to another Node. An element used to set the ending point range is the referenceNode element. In this method, the reference element used and its content is not included in the range.
Syntax:
range.setEndBefore(refNode);
Parameters:
- referenceNode element: The Node which sets the ending of the range.
Return Value: This method has no return value.
Example: This example will show how to set the ending position of the range using the setEndBefore() method. Also in this example, we used the setStartAfter() method to set the starting of the range. The end reference node here is the second <i> element of the document.
