Use JavaScript to place cursor at end of text in text input element

Question

What is the best way (and I presume simplest way) to place the cursor at the end of the text in a input text element via JavaScript - after focus has been set to the element

Answer 1

In jQuery, that's

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('input').focus(function () {
    $(this).attr('value',$(this).attr('value'));
  }
}
