focus after some text in a div tag

[louvino]

Hi,

I have :
<div id="obj">Objet :</div>

I want to put the focus AFTER the text "Objet :", is it possible ?

Note : I don't want to create 2 div tags.

"focus" can only be "on" a whole html element,
[to make it "clickable" by key <enter>?]

Certainly not "after" an element.

I suppose you could be talking about a cursor.

A cursor can only be applied in a writable element.

Is your div writable?

You're right. I 'm talking about the cursor.

I have : <div id="obj" contentEditable="true" style="border : 1px
solid; width:300px">Objet : </div>

And I want the cursor to be after the semicolon.

Thanks

Setting the cursor in a contenteditable div, IE only btw!,
is not a trivial thing, as contenteditable seems a mess in itself.

Perhaps setting a textrange could help, but I doubt it.

seems that doesn't work with my Firefox ...

And I want the cursor to be after the semicolon.

and ...

document.getElementById('obj').focus();
document.getElementById('obj').click();

? ? des fois que ... May be ... with IE all is possible ?

The code :

<div id="obj" contentEditable="true" style="border : 1px solid; width:
300px">Objet :</div>
<script>
document.getElementById('obj').focus();
document.getElementById('obj').click();
</script>

But not, the cursor is not after "Objet :".

I search only a solution for IE >=6
