Mark the content of text fields automatically when focus is gained

I want to mark the full content of text fields automatically as soon as the text field gains the focus. I use setSelectionStart und setSelectionEnd in the focus gained.

The problem is that I need to create a focus gained event for all text fields. I wonder if there is a more elegant solution to this?

0	Please use the selectAllOnFocusGained property of the text field. It does exactly what you want. link answered 25.04.2010 at 05:50 Renato Stalder (suspended) accept rate: 100%
