Hi to all,

 First of all sorry for my poor english.

 I have a requirement to insert a text strings in a asp:textbox at the position where the cursor is placed in textbox.

 Actually I have required to insert the item selected from listbox into textbox at button click event at the place where the cursor is placed in textbox. I think it can be done at serverside if i get the cursor position of textbox but i cannot get the cursor position of text box at server side.

 If their  is any possible solution then please help me.

There is no serverside option to detect cursor position, so far I know. Javscript can detect your cursor position in clientside. But what you want to do is not clear to me.

You can focus your textbox by using

TextBox1.Focus;

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.

 Can you please get me know how i can get the cursor postion of textbox in javascript? I need to know the cursor position in textbox at click event of button.

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function insertAtCursor(elementRef, valueToInsert)
{
 if ( document.selection )
 {
  // Internet Explorer...

  elementRef.focus();
  var selectionRange = document.selection.createRange();
  selectionRange.text = valueToInsert;
 }
 else if ( (elementRef.selectionStart) || (elementRef.selectionStart == '0') )
 {
  // Mozilla/Netscape...

  var startPos = elementRef.selectionStart;
  var endPos = elementRef.selectionEnd;
  elementRef.value = elementRef.value.substring(0, startPos) +
   valueToInsert + elementRef.value.substring(endPos, elementRef.value.length);
 }
 else
 {
  elementRef.value += valueToInsert;
 }
}
// -->
</script>
