Try this,
<HTML>
<script language=javascript>
function getActiveText()
{
totalText = document.FORM1.TEXT1.value;
selectedText = document.selection.createRange().text ;
if (selectedText != '')
{
totalText = totalText.replace(selectedText,'1'+selectedText+'1')
document.FORM1.TEXT1.value = totalText;
}
return true;
}
</script>
<BODY>
<FORM NAME=FORM1>
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=TEXT1 VALUE='HELLO'>
<BR>
<INPUT TYPE=BUTTON NAME=SUBMIT1 VALUE=SUBMIT onClick="getActiveText();">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
