How to mark text in a textbox?

[ludde]

Does anyone know how to mark/hilight text in a textbox. I want the two last digits in a date (that's in a textbox) marked when you come to the page and if you write something the digits are replaced by what you write.

I don't think it's possible. <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Dear ludde,<br><br>One solution is to use a Java Applet.<br><br>Possible solution is IE 5 behaviors. I have not worked with them enough yet to know if this would be possible.<br><br>Good luck<br>-pete

possible solution is to absolutely position two textfields next to one another and use a .select() statement on the second one.
