Here's my problem: I need to present text in a scrolling textarea such
that a checkbox is not enabled until the user has scrolled to the very
last line of the text using the vertical scrollbar.
Been searching for some functions to get scrollbar position for a
textarea object but coming up empty.
I want to write a function that will let me position my cursor in a textarea on a line number. I would need to use on a textarea component to do this.
I'd like to popup a dialog in JS so I can ask the user what line number and then have the cursor go to that line - is this even possible?
Is there some possibility to put the horizontal scroll bar of the web browser into the center if the "width" of web page are bigger then the "width" of the web browser screen?
So I don't need to scroll to right if I open the page, but the horizontal scroll bar will be positioned in the center.
That code should do the same think like I when I take the scroll bar and put it in the center position, but this should be happen when I load the page automatically.
I have a <div> element which contains a chain of auto-popullating dropdown boxes that grows horizontally towards the right as more boxes are created. When enough are created, I have a scrollbar that forms so the boxes don't go of the page.
As the scrollbar appears, I would like it to default on the right side instead of the left side, that way members don't have to keep manually moving the scrollbar in order to see the next box.
i have an problem while setting scrollbar position for selecting any specified row in the table.
Actually scroll bar position depends upon the no. of row exists in the table.so how can i make specified row visible for the table.
I have a page which uses <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="240">
The problem im having is if i am half way downthe page when it refreshes, the refresh takes me back to the top of the page is it possible for the browser to keep the scrollbar position on refresh so that i do not loose my position on the page?
Is there anyway to show scrollbar for textarea in iphone and ipad instead of using two fingered scrolling

View 6 Replies View RelatedSup yo, I need to add text in a <textarea>, but i can only append text at the end.
Is there any way to add text to where the cursor is currently at?[code]...
And below i has sum buttonz that uses that function.
So, again, how can I add text to where the I-beam is currently, instead of at the end?
I am currently working on a small script that allows people to insert BB-codes to edit their text. They are able to click a button (for example underline) and then the bb-code will appear at the end of the textfield-value.How can i retrieve the current position of the cursor within the textarea and then parse the bb-code within?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been able to find for an editable HTML textarea for a WYSIWYG editor. It can save and restore the caret position. It works on FF3.5+, IE8, but does not work on Opera 11, Safari 5, or Chrome 10. Any ideas why? I'm just trying to find some code that works on FF3+, opera 10+, safari 5, chrome 8+, and IE7+.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm really struggling to find any sample code for getting the start and end position of a text area selection (i.e. a textarea contains the phrase "Why isn't there a standard, well-known function that does this?" and somebody selects the word "there" -- using a function, I'd like to be able to grab the start position and end position of the word "there").
Can anybody help me with this, or am I going to have to hack together some long-winded function to do this seemingly simple task?
Does anyone know how to change the position of the caret (cursor) in a Textarea, using Javascript?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm really not sure how to go about doing this, so any and all pointers are welcome. What I'd like to do is be able to find the position and width of a word that has been typed inside of a <textarea>, so that I might overlay some absolutely-positioned elements on top, and size them properly. I would really like to be able to do this in the most general case as possible (independent of fonts, font size, size of the textarea, etc.), but as stated any help is welcome.

----------------
I am writing an advanced BBCode system for my forums and I would like
to be able to find where the cursor was positioned last in the text so
I could insert the BBCode there.
Question 2
----------------
Again I am writing an advanced BBCode system for my forums and I would
like to make is so that when someone puts in a [b] tag it goes bold, so
kind of a WYSIWYG editor and also for other things like [img] tags and
[url] tags. So could someone tell me how to do that. I would preferably
like it to still use the textarea tag, or at least a form component so
my existing code works.
I've got this javascript routine (i found on google) in an
asp.net page that on page reload sets the cursor of a textbox to the
last line. It works great!
Using a similar concept, I have another application that uses a
textbox like an editor window and has a save and other buttons.
Problem is - when I save/post/reload, the textbox returns to cursor
the top again.
How can I preserve / save the exact cursor spot and return to the
exact same spot I was in before I saved. Code:

I have a user that insists they have web applications that do this, and wants the one I'm building to do it too...
You have a table on an html form. As the user changes one or more fields in a table row and moves to the next line, the changed row should AUTOMATICALLY be sent back to the server and updated in the database.
If the user moves BACK to a line that's already been changed, and changed a field, a popup should display and ask "if the user really wants to change the field". If so, again, it should AUTOMATICALLY be sent to the server and updated in the database...
Ignoring the horridness of making that many round trips to the server and banging the database for every line, is there a way to AUTOMATICALLY do the equivalent of a submit and post the changed table row back to the php script?
I'm new to javascript and am not sure why this works in firefox and not chrome. I am trying to create a script that keeps an object fixed horizontally while bing positioned absolute vertically. if I replace the toPP variable in document.getElementById('fire').style.top = toPP; with say '50px' it will move the element down 50 pxs, but how I have it currently it doesn't do anything in chrome
<script type="text/javascript" >
window.onscroll = function()
{
if( window.XMLHttpRequest ) {
var x = 0 -document.documentElement.scrollTop;
var toP = String(x);
var toPP = toP + "px";
