Description Ahmad Saleem 2023-04-16 17:17:17 PDT

Hi Team,

This is something needed to align with other browsers and spec:

Chrome Bug - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=391345

Blink Commit - https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/blink?view=revision&revision=201411

Test Case - http://jsfiddle.net/boggydigital/V5Tf8/

When clicking 'getStartPositionOfChar', it shows [object SVGPoint] in Safari 16.4 while gives error in Chrome Canary 114 and Firefox Nightly 114.

Local build by merging commit fixes this.

Raising so can do PR later.

Thanks!
