Text Area scroll bar event

[davidallen39]

Hi All,

I wanted a bit for information about the text area scroll bar event.

As I understand it, this event is fired when the user selects the scroll bar on the text area and drags it.

Does anyone know if it is also fired when the user is typing text into the text area and their text goes beyond the height of the text area and the scroll bars move downwards automatically?

Thanks in advance
David

It does in IE6 and it's not supported in Firefox.

Basically, what I am trying to do is find out which row in the text area is the users cursor in. I have managed to do this in IE using document.selection.createRange();

Does anyone know how to do it in Firefox. This one has me stumped.
