Selection of inline edit text field puts caret at the end of editable text instead of highlighting all of the text

Description

When selecting an inline edit text field on the Sakai announcement board, the caret appears at the end of the editable text rather then highlighting the text as it does on the bSpace section.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open URL: http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/inline-edit/announcements/announcements.html

2. Using mouse, click on a inline edit text line.

3. Inline edit should change to a editable text line.

4. Pointer should change into I-bar and caret should appear at end of current text.

Environment

This issue is specific to demonstration code that is no longer being supported. The selectOnEdit option addresses this issue.

This "bug" is found on the inline edit springboard test page as well; it also occurs when you use the tab key to select the editable text field.

In fact, whether or not the text is all selected on edit is an option: the "selectOnEdit" option (see http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Inline+Edit+API )

NOTE that this error does NOT occur in the bSpace example at
http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/inline-edit/section-info/section-info.html
