Table Text Input Type highlighting cell contents on focus

[Carl Johnson]

Is there a way in Jade to highlight the contents of a table cell that has an input type of TextBox when that cell has focus without using a cell control?

The scenario that I have is that my table cell has the text "Enter field here", and I want this to be highlighted when that cell has focus so it gets removed when the User starts typing.

If you know that the current cell for the table has an inputType = Table.InputType_TextBox, then you can access the TextBox "cellControl" that has been automatically created to handle the Table.InputType_TextBox with code along the lines of the following:

Code: Select all

table.accessCell( table.row, table.column ).cellControl.TextBox

Cheers,
