On editing textboxes on a webform, when a user tab to a textbox, the
text is highlighted or selected. Any accidental key press will remove
the original text. This has proved a problem for the users. Is it
possible to set a textbox so that the text is not selected when a user
tabs to that textbox? Any help on this will be appreciated.

i guess,this works only in IE...
<script>
function setCursorPos( x ) {
var txtRange = x.createTextRan ge();
txtRange.moveSt art( "character" , x.value.length );
txtRange.moveEn d( "character" , 0);
txtRange.select ();
}
</script>
<form>
<input type="text" >
<input type=text id="txttest" onfocus="javasc ript:setCursorP os(this) ;">
</form>

Hi Augustin
Many thanks for your reply. It appears that your setCursorPos function
select text, i.e. highlights the text. I want the opposite. By default,
my webform select text on tab. I cannot recal changig any default
behaviour.

This will not select the text. This will move the cursor to the end of the
text.

I've got a function, you can see it below, that is being called
onmouseup in the textarea on my main form. The idea is to find a
selection if possible and store that text in a global variable. I can't
get this to work in any browser on a Mac, though it works alright on a
PC. What am I missing?

The treeview has this habit of scrolling when you change the tree's selection so that the selected item is visible. 9 times out of 10 this is the behavior that you'd want, but what do I do to prevent the tree view from scrolling when making a selection? Is there a flag I can pass in with the selection change message? Is there a notification that I can grab and block?
Thanks

Hi.
We're using the dblclick event in some parts of a web app interface,
which works okay, but when a user double clicks on a text element, the
browser selects some text before executing the event handler. How can
I prevent this behaviour?

How do I in IE prevent the onclick action from being fired when I am done dragging?
have tried "window.event.cancelBubble = true", for onmouseup , onmousedown, and onmousemove handlers. The onclick sort action always seems to get fired. Any help would be greatly appeciated.
The following demo is sortable and resizable. I basically don't want the onclick action to be fired if I am resizing a column.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
