I need to calculate caret coordinates within TEXTAREA in pixels.
Pointing me to the right direction will be appreciated.
Thanks

According to the quirksmode link, the standard 'range' doesn't work in IE but does work in all the modern browsers.

Yes, of course (as I mentioned earlier).

I would've thought that the linked code would have worked in IE too.

Hello all, In my html page I want to add an image say of 800x600. Now I want that when ever I am given two coordinates on this image say (x1, y1)=(50, 100) and (x2, y2)=(200, 300), the java script code will trace these coordinates on the image and draw the line between these two points. Can anyone please help me in writing the javascript code of this problem? Thanks and Regards Atif

I would like to set the caret position in a (single-line) textbox to a position based on the number of pixels from the left of the control. For example, I want the caret to be positioned 50 pixels from the left (or as near to there as possible based on the characters in the control). I basically have the position in which the user has positioned the mouse cursor within the textbox, and want to react as if they had actually clicked it....

Hi there, I'm designing a winforms app in VB.NET 2.0 and have a textbox control and also some toolbar buttons.

(It's assumed that the user will be typing and then click the toolbar button.) From my research the textbox control doesn't seem to support any method of...

Overview: 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.
