Set pointer position in pre or div tag

How can i set pointer position? I tried the most famous solution from this topic: Set keyboard caret position in html textbox But this solutions work just in input...

This is the code:

$(document).ready(function(){
	$("#asd").keypress(function(){
		//set cursor to a position
	})
});

<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head><body>

<pre id="asd" contenteditable="true" >
asd
</pre>

</body>
</html>

Solution

Like this:

function setCursor(pos) {
    var el = document.getElementById("asd");
    var range = document.createRange();
    var sel = window.getSelection();
    range.setStart(el.childNodes[0], pos);
    range.collapse(true);
    sel.removeAllRanges();
    sel.addRange(range);
    el.focus();
}

$(document).ready(function(){
	$("#asd").keypress(function(){
		setCursor(4);
	})
});

<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head><body>

<pre id="asd" contenteditable="true" >
