How can I select all txt in a textbox?

[trend]

I have searched.. and found information like:

 

MS example

 

But... I cannot get

 

text1.selectall() to work.. vs.net interlines all of it.. and says:

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebApplication1\login.aspx.vb(68): 'selectall' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox'.

 

I am using vb.net

 

any ideas?

 

 

thanks

IIRC the Windows TextBox supports the .SelectAll() method while the ASP.Net version doesn't. To acheive the same end result in a web application you would need to use a client side technology like JavaScript.

Ah, ok.

 

Thanks!
