After a lot of search I found the following threads:
define cursor position in form input field
jQuery Set Cursor Position in Text Area
Unfortunately in none of the posts a complete form embed code or a real example is given. Now I just don't know how to include nemisj's code (on the first link) or Mark's code (on the second link) into my form:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/validate/jquery.validate.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#site").focus(function(){
if( this.value == this.defaultValue ) {
$(this).val("http://");
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form action="#" method="post">
<input id="name" type="text" name="name" value="Name" /><br />
<input id="site" type="text" name="mail" value="Website" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>
</body>
</html>
I wonder if someone could kindly help me with this as I'm badly stuck!
Many thanks in advance!
Here's the edited code, but it still doesn't work:

<script>
function setCursor(node,pos){
var node = (typeof node == "string" || node instanceof String) ? document.getElementById(node) : node;
if(!node){
return false;
}else if(node.createTextRange){
var textRange = node.createTextRange();
textRange.collapse(true);
textRange.moveEnd(pos);
textRange.moveStart(pos);
textRange.select();
return true;
}else if(node.setSelectionRange){
node.setSelectionRange(pos,pos);
return true;
}
return false;
}
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#site").focus(function(){
if( this.value == this.defaultValue ) {
$(this).val("http://");
var node = $(this).get(0);
setCursor(node,node.value.length);
}
});
});
</script>
