Unable to serialize browser's native Selection

[saraht129]

Hi there, thanks for this great library.

I am trying to deserialize the Selection object so I can restore it later, but it seems that the rangy.serializeSelection(sel, checksum, root) method is not working with the native browser's Selection as the parameter.

Below is a snippet of my code:

var selection = window.getSelection();
var serializedSel = rangy.serializeSelection(selection, false, document.getElementById("content"));

And the error I'm getting is: Error in Rangy WrappedSelection module: getNativeSelection(): Parameter must be a Window object or DOM node

Am I missing something here? Thanks a lot.
