put cursor at end of text input's value
This works for me
<input type="text" autofocus value="value text" onfocus="this.value = this.value;"/>
Upgrade to @harsha's answer
I found that to make solution work with Firefox, we need temporary reset value to "not-equal of value", then set it back
<input type="text" autofocus value="value text" onfocus="var temp_value=this.value; this.value=''; this.value=temp_value" />
Use Jquery for this:
$(function() {
var input = $("#txt1");
var len = input.val().length;
input[0].focus();
input[0].setSelectionRange(len, len);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="text" id="txt1" value="Lorem" style="width:400px;" />
But some browsers don't support enter code here
property, in which case use this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#search").focus(function(){
if (this.setSelectionRange)
{
var len = $(this).val().length;
this.setSelectionRange(len, len);
}
else
{
$(this).val($(this).val());
}
});
$("#search").focus();
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="search" type="text" value="mycurrtext" size="30" name="search" />
