title: Highlighting text in a textbox using Javascript
body: <p>I have an ASP.NET 2.0 webapp (with C#). I wanted to add a button which, when clicked would highlight selected text. By 'highlight', I mean change the CSS properties of the text so that it can stand out. I think this can be done with some clientside JavaScript.</p>
  
  <p>I know that you can assign a Javascript function to the onclick event of an HTML input button, but since I'm not very proficient at JS the function itself I have no idea how to write...</p>
  
  <p>Can someone please help?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a bunch!</p>
