Hi. Do you want the text to be only selected or edit the value after clicking?

Hello, Both of them. When i click the element becomes editable (already done) and i'd like to have the content selected to update it immediately. By the way, is it possible to capture an event when the user has changed the value?

Unfortunately, I could not find a method that would mark the entire text at once. And look here: https://datatables.net/reference/event/ Its should work in MDB
