Here’s a drop-in replacement for the <input/> tag. It’s a simple functional component that uses hooks to preserve and restore the cursor position: import React, { useEffect, useRef, useState } from ‘react’; const ControlledInput = (props) => { const { value, onChange, …rest } = props; const [cursor, setCursor] = useState(null); const ref = useRef(null); … Read more
The problem is also identified in your status bar at the bottom: You are in overwrite mode instead of insert mode. The “Insert” key toggles between insert and overwrite modes.
It looks OK apart from the space in your ID attribute, which is not valid, and the fact that you’re replacing the value of your input before checking the selection. function textbox() { var ctl = document.getElementById(‘Javascript_example’); var startPos = ctl.selectionStart; var endPos = ctl.selectionEnd; alert(startPos + “, ” + endPos); } <input id=”Javascript_example” name=”one” … Read more
None of these solutions worked for me because it’s too much code. I use a custom jQuery implementation to do the drag, and adding this line in the mousedown handler did the trick for me in Chrome. e.originalEvent.preventDefault();

Looks like clearing the value after focusing and then resetting works. input.focus(); var tmpStr = input.val(); input.val(”); input.val(tmpStr);
I’ve been having the same problem with setting a TextEditingController and this is what worked for me. controller.text = someString; controller.selection = TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition(offset: controller.text.length)); TextSelection.fromPosition() does the following (from the documentation): Creates a collapsed selection at the given text position. A collapsed selection starts and ends at the same offset, which means it contains zero … Read more

If you’re targeting iOS 7+, this has been made much easier. Simply change the tintColor of the field with a cursor using the appearance proxy and it will apply throughout the app: Swift 3.0: UITextField.appearance().tintColor = .black Objective-C: [[UITextField appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]]; Same answer applies for an individual UITextField: Swift 3.0: myTextField.tintColor = .black Objective-C … Read more
