premiso Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 To get the bar to be on whatever form element you want, it is .focus(); using javascript on a form element. It will set the focus to that item. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yami007 Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 ok i grasped it. but what i actually want is something like when user clicks on B that will be in the input so the bar should be inside & thank you !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yami007 Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 uh, well that 2nd half of my sentence mentioned you[ explaining to me in more detail what you are wanting... yes !! well my basic bbcode function is like this : <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> function smiley(text) { document.reply.message.value = document.reply.message.value += text; document.reply.message.focus(); // i added this when premiso told me about the function but still need more funcionality } </script> something like when the bbcode is [ b ] [ /b ], the caret as u told me which i never knew its name should be between [ b ] & [ /b ] i hope this is good explanation to what i want to do. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 okay, you still aren't making any sense. At best, you are talking as if I'm sitting in front of your computer screen with you pointing at stuff. Well I'm not, so I have no idea what you are talking about, because I don't know the context of your situation. Are you talking about for example, when I am making a post on a forum, if I click on for example the "bold" button, it auto-inserts the bbcode where my caret is?
