Setting Cursor Position (IE only) 2

[jaredn]

Not sure if anyone is interested, but this should allow you to set the cursor position in any text input element ( textarea, various input types, others? ).

/*
obj is the element object
pos is the position in the string the cursor should appear
*/
function setCursor(obj,pos)
{
if(pos<0) throw new Error(666,&quot;Invalid argument in setCursor.&quot

var r = obj.createTextRange();
r.moveStart(&quot;character&quot;,pos-1);
r.collapse();
r.moveEnd(&quot;character&quot;,pos==0?0:1);
r.text = r.text;
r.select()
}
