Below is the code which is used to validate the entries on a form(some field are not be left blank). The user gets the msg when he hits the "Check"button. The problem is after the user gets the msg, I am not able to set the focus in the field which is the first element of an error array which stores the info about the fields with errors on this form.code...
View 3 RepliesI have created a form with malsup's Form Plugin wherein it submits on change of the inputs. I have set up my jQuery script to index drop down menus and visible inputs, and uses that index to determine whether keydown of tab should move focus to the next element or the first element, and likewise with shift+tab keydown. However, instead of moving focus to the first element from the last element on tab keydown like I would like it to, it moves focus to the second element. How can I change it to cycle focus to the actual first and last elements? Here is a live link to my form: [URL]. Here is my script:
$(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
target: '#c_main',
success: setFocus

I am trying to fix error- object does not exist- I want it possible to
allow object not to exist.
I am writing a script on a page that may or may not include a login
form. For example-after a visitor logs in, the login form is no longer
on the page, but other content is still there.
I want to bring focus to the login form using the onLoad in the body
tag.....but if the login form does not exist, I do not want to perform
this function.
The following code works fine for focusing the cursor on to the login
form.
(code)
<html>
<head>
<title>
Testing Javascript
</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function addcursor ()
{
if (document.login) {
document.login.username.focus();
}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body OnLoad ="addcursor()">
<form name="login" id="login" action="" method="post">
<input type = "text" name="username" id="username" />
<input type="password" name="password" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
(end code)
But if you remove the form in the body section from the code, an error "object does not exist or is null" results.
I would appreciate any help I can get about setting focus back to a textbox after my javascript validates that the input by a user into the textbox is incorrect. You can see my attempt at this towards the end of the javascript with - dateStr.Edate.focus(); I know the dateStr part is incorrect but not sure what other variable to use. Plus I am guessing I need to put the statement right before each false statement since there are different errors that can occur by the user. Additionally, I have two textboxes that I want the same javascript to validate. How does this affect setting focus to the appropriate textbox after an incorrect input. I am new to javascript so I hope my question makes sense. Thanks.

I have managed to create a very basic form validation script that I can retrospectively add into current forms with the least effort.
As far as the validation goes I am sure that the script is not pretty, but it does work. However, I have failed to manage to get it to return the focus to the first field that errors.
My abortive attempts are not included in the attached script because I have tried and failed with many different attempts that I have confused myself. I would appreciate any advice that could point me in the right direction to place the focus in the first error field found. Code:
What is the correct syntax for an nested array where each array element has 3 elements, a number and two text strings?
Code:
array = ['1, Old Man, Old Man','2 Black Sheep, Black Sheep',....]
should the text strings be in double quotes("")?
Code:
array = ['1, "Old Man", "Old Man"','2 "Black Sheep", "Black Sheep"',....]
im trying to make a program that passes an array to a method. the method then finds the smallest number in the array and passes that number back to the main where its printed out. I am getting an error saying: "error: number cannot be resolved to a variable". I am using drjava. here is my code.

I'm trying to grab values from a set of arrays based on the value returned by my select box.
**Caveat - this is not an area I have any real experience with**
My arrays look like:
Code JavaScript:
I then need to test for each, then associate with one of my fees arrays, then grab each of the values in the array and write those values to elements within my page.
I'm then doing this to evaluate for each degree
Code JavaScript:
I need to first figure out how best to import all of these 60+ arrays and then in each of my conditions pull out each value and write to my page.
There is a unique 1 to 1 relationship between each degree and array so I can't consolidate as the values for each degree differ slightly.
I am working on a firefox extension. The job is to sit in the status bar and as I type into any form on any webpage, listen for keyboard events, then modify the key pressed by mapping it to some foreign unicode character and then sending it to the form in focus.
As I see it, there are two ways I can achieve it.
1) Capture the event, modify it and then send it and not be concerned with the form in focus.
2) Capture the event, prevent default action., find a unicode mapping for the key pressed, find the form in focus and based on the type of form, call a method to explicitly insert the mapped character at the cursor position.
Right now I am not able to find a way to do either. Once I get the focused element, I can do something to it. But I am not yet able to get that. I even tried document.activeElement, but it doesnt seem to work in firefox.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an input box with an id. I also have a jquery hotkey plugin which fires when I press F8 in this case.
$(document).bind('keydown', 'f8', function (){

The hotkey works just fine. (ive tested with alert boxes). What I am trying to do is find the cursor location (and then the elements id) when the f8 key is pressed. or...
I want to find which input has focus on keydown.
Is it possible to extend jquery to include a function that will select elements with focus. In the same way :input selects all inputs :selected selects all selected etc but instead :focus or focused: which would select the focused element. I have a table which includes an input field on each row (like a simple datagrid). Id like to be able to hit an access key and delete the row (input textbox) which has focus ie the row which the cursor has been placed in.
I found this but it selects the first input textbox only for some reason?... and not the one with focus.
$.extend($.expr[':'], {
focused: function(elem) { return elem.hasFocus; }
});
var id = $('input :focused').val();
console.log(id);
I have this page below which I run locally that is created dynamically: [URL]
I need a piece of javascript to focus on the captcha as shown in the image inside the green box. At this minute I have this which doesn't work all that great for some reason but it gets it to the general area...
if (( document.URL.indexOf("cast_skills") != -1 ) || ( document.URL.indexOf("security_prompt") != -1 ) || ( document.URL.indexOf("joinraid") != -1 )){
if ( document.forms.length > 0 ) {
document.forms[0].elements[1].focus();
}
}
As I said this does the job to some extent however it does not leave the focus in a perfect position so that the captcha is readable and the text box visible to type in, as illustrated in the red box in the above image.
I have an input element on a form. When I open a popup form and then close it, I try to put the focus back on my input element by using the focus() method. However, that fails and it doesn't get focus.When I press tab to get out of this input element, it takes several tries for it to get the tab event (since it wasn't focused, but how come it suddenly gets focus to respond later?)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form and would like to re-create the :focus attribute to the fields, so when the field has focus/is active it changes the background image.
Is there any simple way of doing this using Javascript?
Can I safely assume that, if an element is clicked, then it obtains the focus? Alternatively, I can set the focus with something like this:
$('#my-button').bind('click', function() { $(this).trigger('focus'); });
I want to handle focus and blur events on any DIV element but don't know how? I tried this one:
$('.myDIV').bind('focus',function(event){
// something
});
But it doesn't work!

$('input[name=description]').focus();

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis code works fine in Firefox and Opera, I can see that it put focus
on the correct input in IE, but by the time the page has loaded
completely it loses focus.
The first time you enter the page it works fine in IE too, but if you
click a link which gives the input a value after reloading the page the
above happens. Code:
vBulletin uses a template system so I can't create a separate element for everything -- we have had several people ask for a "skip to the next post" feature and I'd like to implement that for them My first thought was to use anchor tags such as:
<a name="$post[postid]">
for each post and then to create a link for "Jump to Next Post" which would advance the user to the next instance of <a name="$post[postid]"> in which the postid obviously would've changed. With that I didn't know if there was a way that I could have javascript look for the next instance of this, or to pull the postid number and add 1 to it to find the next post on the page. I'm also not sure if it would need to be as complicated as reading where it was at and then adding one and directing person to that anchor point, which is why I thought maybe it could just look for the next instance of <a name="$post[postid]"> and refocus the screen on that.
It doesn't have to be an anchor, it can be a hidden input, whatever makes the JS be able to seek it as a point to move the page to. We do have some members that select a different number of posts per page than the default, so I'm guessing that the plus one might not be a great idea if they used a smaller number per page and then clicked the last one, whereas people with more per post wouldn't need to stop at the same point before it no longer let them. If there's a solution for that, that'd be great as well (such as once it hits the last element on the page, it no longer receives instruction, goes to the top of the page, or something).
