Struts - Markup text in textbbox

[Christine Mayer]

I would like to mark up the text in a textbox (in the case of an error)
( so that the text has got a blue layer...)
This way the user could directly retype the value without having to
delete it...

thx,

Christine

If by "textbox", you mean "textarea", that's not possible. The HTML
Textarea element contains pure, plain, uninterpreted text. Tools like
FckEditor (http://www.fckeditor.net/demo/default.html) use a combination of
JavaScript and IFRAME to fake something that looks like a textarea, but a
lot of the functionality (like the ability to edit text) had to be
reimplemented from scratch.

lol, sry for that stupid answer. just came from c.l.c news group
and thats what they always answer, if they find a post without
any real question in it.

As to adress, what you would like to do:
use select(int, int), setSelectionEnd, setSelectionStart from
class TextComponent (TextField, TextArea), if you deal with awt
components, or from class JTextComoponent (JTextField, JTextArea)
for swing.
