Skipping to an element within the CKEditor by ID and setting the cursor focus within that element.

With the element in view, you'll attempt to insert the cursor at the beginning of the element using a Range. Firefox will actually insert the cursor for you but Chrome wont, so the Range step is necessary.

skip-to-element-ckeditor.js
content_copyfile_download
var element = evt.editor.document.getById('someHeading');
var range;

if(element) {
    element.scrollIntoView();

    range = editor.createRange();
    range.setStart(element, 0);
    range.setEnd(element, 0);
    editor.getSelection().selectRanges([range]);
}
