Welcome to TSDN!
I think you can't do it using Standard JavaScript.

Kind regards,

Try this .....
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <input type="text" onkeypress="return false;" onkeyup="return false;" onkeydown="return false;">
  2.  
Enjoy this code and let me know :-)

Iam sorry to say that i didnt get u .

if i call onkeyup function, for each keystroke it calls the function mentioned
in the onkeyup event. so when i press anyother key after the event,
it calls the function and making the cursor to move to last position of textbox.
please suggest me something iam new to javascript.

if any other buddy is there just let me know his/her name?

Positioning a Cursor is not possible with Standard JavaScript.
And you can place the cursor at last position.
It is possible just by rewriting the text value you want.
Have a look at this code ...


Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <input type = "text" onkeyup = "return test(event)" onkeydown = "return test(event)">
  2.  
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. function test(e)
  2. {
  3.  var key = e.which ? e.which : e.keyCode;
  4.  var src = e.target ? e.target : e.srcElement;
  5.  if(key==/*your key code*/){ src.value = value; return false; }
  6.  else return true;
  7. }
  8.  
Kind regards,

Hi group, I'm having a strange problem with event handling. My project has a form with a textbox that creates 25 instances of class A when a button is clicked.

Twenty-five files are created each time the button is pressed. The form is wired up to the event (rr.OnComplete += new...

My overall objective is to create something akin to Google Suggest, where a query is done in response to changes in a text field presented to the user. I've got things working using the onkeyup event and some AJAX techniques, but I am troubled by one thing: the more characters that are entered, the slower the interface is to settle down, because a discrete lookup is done each time the field changes by a single character.

The first text on my form is a numeric field. I have a javascript that runs on this field for onkeyup (validate the key strokes and modifies fields on the screen) but when I do this and have the autopostback on, the autopostback does not trigger. The autopostback will trigger if I hit the enter key while in the textbox but not when I leave focus. Here is the code for the textbox. <asp:textbox class="required" AutoPostBack="True"...

The code below correctly sets an iframe to be editable, and then tries to attach an "onkeyup" event to the iframe. Instead of doing that, however, it generates a cryptic "Object required" error in Explorer 7, and doesn't seem to do anything at all in Firefox. Am I missing something really basic? Thanks for any help. --Brent

How do I write a custom validator for the onkeyup event. my scenario is two textboxes and if one of them is filled the other has to be filled to. if not both need not be filled(so, onkeyup event should trigger the requiredfield validation for the other text box and vice versa). I am able to write validation for one text box but unable to write validation for my case.
