hi all,
How shall I get the caret position in a text box? (both in IE and Mozilla)

There's a great article here entitled "Getting/Setting the Selected Text (Caret Positions) within a Text Box in Internet Explorer and Firefox" that tells you everything you need to know regarding getting and setting the caret position(s) in both IE and Mozilla.
