I have 2 text boxes.
For example:
textbox1 = "Hello bob, How are you"
textbox2 = "Hello cad, how are you"
I have looped through each text box and know that the area I want to highlight on textBox 2 is between the charaters 7 and 9. How do I highlight only these characters as Bold and with a yellow background?
i wanted to know how i could go about selecting all the values of the textbox in one click, and then auto copying it.
So basically, the textbox is a read only, and has text inside, but when the user clicks the textbox, it will highlight the text in the textbox, and autocopy it.
I have a dynamic textbox appearing in a gridview on the row editing function. I have the following code to set the focus tot he textbox:
GridView1.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex
BindData()
GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).FindControl("txtTargetAmount").Focus()
This works fine, but I would now also like to select the data in the textbox so the user does not have to select the text before typing, they can just type straight away. I have been trying to use:
txtTargetAmount1.SelectionStart = 0
txtTargetAmount1.SelectionLength = txtTargetAmount1.Text.Length
but this does not work.
I have a text box in a gridview that is causing some problems with user input. The first time the user opens the page the gridview is populated with zero's in all rows textboxes. I set the focus to the first textbox in the Page_Load event but the cursor is placed to the left of the zero and when some users enter data they don't realize the zero doesn't go away so the first row ends up wrong. Once the tab or enter key is hit and the next row is selected, the zero is "selected", for lack of a better term like when the insert key is predded, and once the user starts typing only the new value remains. Is there a way to make the zero in the first row "selected" ?
View 1 RepliesI have the following code which sets the focus of the textbox, but I now also want th text in the textbox to be highlighted, but without the use of JavaScript. I have tried using JavaScript but cannot get it too work, is there any other way to do it?

Just wondering if it is possible to programatically highlight all the text within a textbox.
Specifically, I have a text box with validation. If an error is thrown, I set the focus to the specified textbox, but the way it works now the user starts typing and none of the text that already exists disappears. I'm wondering if I can make it so that if the error is thrown, not only is the focus set to the textbox, but the text within the textbox is selected, so that if they simply start typing all of the old text disappears, or they can click and retype a single character if necessary.
I have an ASP.NET 2.0 webapp (with C#). I wanted to add a button which, when clicked would highlight selected text. By 'highlight', I mean change the CSS properties of the text so that it can stand out. I think this can be done with some clientside JavaScript.I know that you can assign a Javascript function to the onclick event of an HTML input button, but since I'm not very proficient at JS the function itself I have no idea how to write

View 4 RepliesI have a TextBox using the AjaxControlToolkit's MaskedEditExtender, the extender is using the Date mask (99/99/9999). We had modified the toolkit code to support 2-digit year (as seen in this post) which works just fine when the date TextBox initially has no value. But when the date TextBox has an existing date such as 10/04/2010, if I type in say 100409, it becomes 10/04/0910, in other words it doesn't replace the existing year but simply replace the first 2 digits of the year. If I first hightlight the entire field then type then it works. My question is is there a way to hightlight the entire date value of the TextBox upon entering the field?
I tried using javascript code textbox.focus() and .selet() but it doesn't highlight anything, it just places the cursor at the beginning of the textbox.
I'm adding hotkeys to a web application in order to enable keyboard shortcuts for our CSRs to use, to reduce injury and increase calls-per-hour. I'm using an ASP.net UserControl to inject javascript into the page and it's working great. I want the control to "just work", so that when hotkeys are assigned, using a declarative syntax, if the hotkeyed letter exists in the link text, it will be highlighted automatically, so the developer doesn't have to do anything, and also to maintain consistency in visual cues. Here's the code to assign hotkeys, if it matters:
<uc:HotKeysControl ID="theHotkeys" runat="server" Visible="true">
<uc:HotKey ControlName="AccStatus$btnInvoiceEverBill" KeyCode="ctrl+v" />
<uc:HotKey ControlName="AccStatus$btnRefund" KeyCode="ctrl+u" />
<uc:HotKey ControlName="thirdControl" KeyCode="ctrl+p" />
</uc:HotKeysControl>
I want something like:
<a href="whatever" name="thirdControl">Make a <span class=hotkey">P</span>ayment</a>
but I'm not married to the idea of injecting a <span/> in there if there's a better way. How can I do this in CSS or JQuery? Is there a way to pass in a letter to a CSS style and have it change the color of the text displayed? Should I generate javascript to highlight the text when the page loads? What would/did you do in this situation?
i have in my asp.net page a textarea where users type an article="long text" to be saved in the database. In another page i display these articles(textarea) in a :
<p class="p-article">
the text of the article goes here.

I'd like to filter these articles by search keywords .for example when a user search for "Startup Marketing".
I want to apply the keywords as a filter and get articles and bring those that contain "Startup" or "Marketing" or "Startup Marketinbg".And this in client side by jquery if possible.
I´m currently programming a web search application in ASP.Net and having problem with full text searching. My requirements are:

2. How to highlight the string I am currently searching in the Word document and return to the user the sentence with the highlighted string (like on Bing or any other search engines)? Is it possible to fullfill this requirement with full-text search integrated in SQL Server 2008?

I have an ASP.net gridview on a webform where user's can select a row. When they select it, the row is highlighted yellow. The problem is that when I sort the table, it sorts properly but the highlight stays on the same line. The data all moves, but the highlight stays put.
how I can make the highlight stay with the data?
