    [Resolved]TextArea Selection

    Hi All,

    I have got a textarea and wnat to select all the contents in it during page_ load event, so that the user does not need to press control + 'A' .

    regards,
    ssmantha.

    You would need to use client-side JavaScript to do this.

    Add a RegisterStartupScript(), and put this there:

    Code:
    document.formname.text_area_name.focus();document.formname.text_area_name.select();
