Get offset of node in whole html document in Javascript?

I am looking for a way to get the offset relative to the entire document for a given node using Javascript. For instance:.

<html>
    <head></head>
    <body>
        <div id="mainContent">
            <h1 id="myTitle">Title</h1>
            <p>First paragraph</p>
            <p>Second <b>paragraph</b></p>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Then (using jQuery):

$("#myTitle").getDocumentOffset()

should return 47 because h1 with id myTitle begins at offset 47 in characters relative to the entire document.

Any idea how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

This question does not make sense, because extra spaces are ignored in HTML documents, and therefore the same page can be represented in several ways. For example, this:

<html>
  <body></body>
</html>

equivalent to this:

<html><body></body></html>
