Hi,
I have a text field with some data already entered in it, and i want to let the user to append more characters to the textfield. So, when he/she clicks on a button "Append data", i have written a javascript that sets the focus to the textfield (tf.focus). But, the cursor is placed at the first character. Is there some way to place the cursor after the last character?
I am left clueless. I found some help on the web, but that is browser specific.

Netscape usually places the cursor at the end, IE code which you prob. found focus the field, creates a text range, and collasps it and cause the cursor to be at the end. I would post the code, but i need to leave for work in 2 minutes
