For example: http://codepen.io/Enclave88/pen/YqNpog?editors=1010
var InputBox = React.createClass({
render: function() {
return (
<input className="mainInput" value='Some something'></input>
)
}
});

Class component
:class Input extends React.Component {
handleFocus = (event) => event.target.select();
render() {
return (
<input type="text" value="Some something" onFocus={this.handleFocus} />
);
}
}
Functional component
:const handleFocus = (event) => event.target.select();
const Input = (props) => <input type="text" value="Some something" onFocus={handleFocus} />
React.createClass
:handleFocus: function(event) {
event.target.select();
},
render: function() {
return (
<input type="text" value="Some something" onFocus={this.handleFocus} />
);
},
var InputBox = React.createClass({
getInitialState(){
return {
text: ''
};
},
render: function () {
return (
<input
ref="input"
className="mainInput"
placeholder='Text'
value={this.state.text}
onChange={(e)=>{this.setState({text:e.target.value});}}
onFocus={()=>{this.refs.input.select()}}
/>
)
}
});
You have to set ref on the input and when focused you have to use select().
Thanks, I appreciate it. I did it so:
var input = self.refs.value.getDOMNode();
input.focus();
input.setSelectionRange(0, input.value.length);
In my case I wanted to select the text from the beginning after the input appeared in the modal:
componentDidMount: function() {
this.refs.copy.select();
},
<input ref='copy'
var React = require('react');
var Select = React.createClass({
handleFocus: function(event) {
event.target.select()
},
render: function() {
<input type="text" onFocus={this.handleFocus} value={'all of this stuff'} />
}
});
module.exports = Select;
Auto select all content in a input for a react class. The onFocus attribute on a input tag will call a function. OnFocus function has a parameter called event generated automatically. Like show above event.target.select() will set all the content of a input tag.
