我有以下代码在HTML网页中显示一个文本框。

<input type="text" id="userid" name="userid" value="Please enter the user ID" />

当页面显示时,文本包含“请输入用户ID”消息。但是,我发现用户需要单击3次才能选择所有文本(在本例中是Please enter the user ID)。

是否可以只点击一下就选择整个文本?

编辑:

抱歉,我忘了说:我必须使用input type="text"

If you are just trying to have placeholder text that gets replaced when a user selects the element then it is obviously best practice to use placeholder attribute nowadays. However, if you want to select all of the current value when a field gains focus then a combination of @Cory House and @Toastrackenigma answers seems to be most canonical. Use focus and focusout events, with handlers that set/release the current focus element, and select all when focused. An angular2/typescript example is as follows (but would be trivial to convert to vanilla js):

模板:

<input type="text" (focus)="focus()" (focusout)="focusout()" ... >

组件:

private focused = false;

public focusout = (): void => {
    this.focused = false;
};

public focus = (): void => {
    if(this.focused) return;
    this.focused = true;

    // Timeout for cross browser compatibility (Chrome)
    setTimeout(() => { document.execCommand('selectall', null, false); });
};

当.select()在移动平台上不起作用时,这个问题有选项:在iOS设备(移动Safari)上以编程方式选择输入字段中的文本

以下是Shoban回答的可重复使用版本:

<input type="text" id="userid" name="userid"
 value="Please enter the user ID" onfocus="Clear(this);"
/>

function Clear(elem)
{
elem.value='';
}

这样就可以为多个元素重用clear脚本。

输入自动聚焦,onfocus事件:

<INPUT onfocus="this.select()" TYPE="TEXT" NAME="thing" autofocus>

这样就可以打开选中所需元素的表单。它的工作原理是使用自动聚焦来命中输入,然后发送自己一个onfocus事件,该事件反过来选择文本。

如果你正在使用AngularJS,你可以使用一个自定义指令来方便访问:

define(['angular'], function () {
    angular.module("selectionHelper", [])
    .directive('selectOnClick', function () {
        return {
            restrict: 'A',
            link: function (scope, element, attrs) {                
                element.on('click', function () {
                    this.select();
                });
            }
        };
    });
});

现在你可以这样使用它:

<input type="text" select-on-click ... />

这个示例带有requirejs -所以如果使用其他内容,可以跳过第一行和最后一行。
