Looking at the Imageshack site, this is the way you could do it for your site.
Set up a function in between the <head> </head> tags of your page like this.
And then for each field that you want to select all the text in when clicked, add this 'onClick' action.
Hope that helps.

These instructions arenSelect All Text In A Form Field On Click
Hello,
I tried following the instructions you provided to create a textarea with one-click-select-all behavior in a wordpress article. I had to include the
function highlight(field) { field.Focus(); field.Select();}
in an external file. When trying to use the highlight(), nothing happens. Any update to this script?

function highlight(field) { field.Focus(); field.Select();}
javascript is case sensitive...
Should
field.Focus(); Field.Select();
you could just add to onclick this.Select()
