This looks depending on a specific font, and looks not portable.

document.getElementById('i1').focus();
document.getElementById('i1').setSelectionRange(4, 4);

Does this work?

Yes it will work. I had made the changes in new patch.

+    var startY = document.getElementById("i1").offsetTop + 4;
+    eventSender.mouseMoveTo(startX,startY);
+    eventSender.mouseDown();
+    eventSender.mouseUp();
+}
 </script>
