JavaScript: get text selection
Hi all
I want to get the currently selected text (anywhere on the page) into a variable. Searching this forum has given me a way to do it in IE4+, but I have two problems:
1) This needs to work on NS6 too, or at least a seperate way for NS6
2) The purpose of the script is that it adds the currently selected text to a text field when the user clicks a button. The problem is that when the user clicks the selection is lost. What can I do?
Thx in advance
All the buzzt
