Can I position the cursor at the start of a textarea (HTA and VBScript)? -

i have textarea default text named textarea this:

<p><textarea name="textarea">default text</textarea></p>

i set focus using:

sub window_onload     textarea.focus end sub

is there way can have cursor @ start of default text rather end? guess has "selstart" can't work out how use , google isn't helping.

sorry if basic question, it's first real hta/vbscript , i'm learning go.

thanks

textarea.focus put cursor @ beginning of text when tested it. can move using sendkeys method:

sub window_onload   textarea.focus   createobject("wscript.shell").sendkeys "^{home}" end sub

the selstart , selend properties apply textbox controls in visual basic forms, not html <textarea> elements.

for more sophisticated cursor handling in textareas need javascript.
