How to place the cursor at the end of text input?

Question

$(function () {
  $(window).load(function () {
    $('#myInput').focus();
  });
})

The above will focus <input type="text" id="myInput" />, but how can I place the cursor at the end of a filled input?

This has been asked before but not solved. selectionStart was mentioned but seems to work for textareas only.
