Trying to Imitation IE 5 text box
cynthia:
i assume you're trying to emulate the actions of the ie address/cool bar
control and writing your own browser. well, i would suggest using the
selStart, selText and selLength in conjunction with the len() function and
match the text that the user has typed with an array of existing values that
the typed values can be compared to.
cya!
