I'm using http://digitalbush.com/projects/masked-input-plugin/ plugin.
There is an input text with defined mask:
<input type="text" id="txtMyInput" class="FocusSense"/>
and a script:
$(document).ready(function () {
    jQuery(function ($) {            
        $("#txtMyInput").mask("?9.99");            
    });
    $(".FocusSense").focus(function () {
        this.select();
    });
})
As you can see, I would like select all in txtMyInput on focus but but alas! On focus, mask appears and loose .select().
What should I do to preserve mask and .select()?
