Sorry...all I get by that example is an error!!! (Object doesn't support this methode!)
I'm using Netscape 4.70 and Explorer 5.00.
I copied the entire example into a blank HTML file and then tried to test it...with NO success!

This code posted is not functional. window.findText is nto supported. I think what was meant was:

var rangeText = document.body.createTextRange( );
rangeText.findText('Please do not cut and paste.');

However this still does not work. I have an idea. Create an mouseup event handler and check the selected text if it is not nothing on mouse up set it to nothing. It's as simple as that.

Thanks,
