Jul 23, 2005I am using the script below to open a new window and once opened,
redirect to that open window from the original window:
private void btnNewPDFWindow_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string NewPage = "NewPageZoom.aspx";
string ScriptBlockNewPage = "<script language='javascript'>var

Response.Write(ScriptBlockNewPage);

For some reason, with the code above, I have to click the button twice
in order to get it to focus to the 2nd window again.
Any ideas?
Focus On Field - IPad Browser Blocking The Focus
Aug 18, 2010I'm currently making a web application which needs to be fully compatible with iPad. The functions I've implemented so far work perfectly on Firefox, Internet Explorer and other browsers. However, the iPad itself responds a bit different. After a certain action, I want to put focus on a textfield with the help of Javascript. Again, this works perfectly with the normal browser, the iPad browser however seems to be blocking the focus. The reason I'm not posting any code is because it's basically irrelevant. All I do is:

May 9, 2010I think the problem is cause by my lack of understanding of how the browser (firefox 3.6.3) handles focus.A simplified version of my problem is:I've defined the function

Public Static Method Accessing Private Method
Aug 3, 2006I'm trying to do something, but I don't know if it's possible.
Basically, I want to have a public static class method that could
access a private object's method. I would like to be able to do :
Class.method(InstanceOfClass);
The method would then access a private function from Class by doing
something like
function method(param) {
param.privateMethodOfClass();
}
I've done a lot research and experimentations but just can't come up
with a solution... I don't even know if what I'm trying to do is
possible.
Why Is The Callwhy Is The Slice Method Only A Method Of An Array Instance?
Jan 31, 2011Why is the callwhy is the slice method only a method of an Array instance? The reason why I ask is because if you want to use it for the arguments property of function object, or a string, or an object, or a number instance, you are forced to use Array .prototype slice.call(). And by doing that, you can pass in any type of object instance (Array, Number, String, Object) into it. So why not just default it as a method of all object instances built into the language?In other words, instead of doing this:
function Core(){
var obj = {a : 'a', b : 'b'};
var num = 1;[code]....
//right now none of the above would work but it's more convenient than using the call alternative.
}
Core('dom','event','ajax');
Why did the designers of the javascript scripting language make this decision?

Manual Focus Vs. Focus()
May 20, 2007I'm attaching an onfocus event handler to an anchor tag like this:
if(window.attachEvent) anchor_node.attachEvent('onfocus', gotFocus);
if(window.addEventListener) anchor_node.addEventListener('focus',
gotFocus, false);
function gotFocus() {
alert('i got focus');
}
Is there any way to tell the difference between when this anchor is
focused by a user (perhaps by tabbing to it) as opposed to when I
programatically do it via anchor_node.focus()?
Get Focus On The Address Bar And Focus There?

I'm not sure if there would be restrictions on doing this because of security reasons
Focus()
Sep 13, 2005When I validate a form on submission I use the javascript focus function to
scroll the page to the location of the form error e.g.
document.[Form Name].[Field Name].focus();
If you happened to have the page scrolled above where the error field is
then the page will scroll so that the error field is at the very top of the
window. If you happened to have the page scrolled below where the error
field is then the page will scroll so that the error field is at the very
bottom of the window. Neither of these is very desirable. Any way to get the
error field to the middle of the window?
e.g. in javascript after the focus statement, can one test the location of
the error field and then either add half a windows worth of pixels to it if
it is at the top of the screen or subtract half a windows worth of pixels to
it if it is at the bottom of the screen?

Focus On Second Window
Jul 23, 2005If I use the following construct in the frame "main" for a link to an
extern site:
<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern">
the Browser is creating the window "extern", loading the page
www.any.xy an setting the focus to "extern". But when I go return to
"main" without closing "extern", a click to an other link (e.g.
www.2nd_any.xy) on "main" does not setting the focus to "extern".
For setting the focus to "extern" in the second case, I have used the
following construct:
<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern"
onClick="setTimeout('extern=window.open('','extern');fr emd.focus();',500);">
an example</A>
This construct has worked very well for a few years, but since about
one year, the sesult was the same as using
<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern">
In this year, I have changed:
win 95 --> win 2000
modem 56k --> DSL
Netscape 4.5 --> Netscape 7.1
Can anybody tell me a possibility setting the focus to "extern" in the
second case? Is the changing of my configuration the reason, that the
construct has failed?
Windows And Focus

Jul 23, 2005I encountered some strange behaviour when using focus()
I use a form with several input-fields. A user can enter stuff. After
entering I want to check the value, i.e. that a number is only a
number etc.
I therefore started editing a Javascript. For test purposes it only
popup a message and sets the focus. In fact this is what I want to do,
but the scipt isn't it doing right.
Here is the script:

Focus Not Working
Jul 23, 2005I have a date validation function that I want to stay at the object I am
validating if there is a Validation error, but it always goes to the next
object.
The javascript:
function ValidateForm(me){
var dt=me
if (isDate(dt.value)==false){
dt.focus()
return false
}
return true
}
The html:
<input name="AbsentFrom1" type="text" size="10" id="AbsentFrom1"
onBlur="return ValidateForm(this)" />
I do get the error box in my other function (isDate) and it is doing the
dt.focus().
Why doesn't it stay there?
Focus( ) Problem
Oct 7, 2005I have a page that has 3 different iframes in it. The bottom iFrame
continually gets updated as the user adds different images to it
through the interface, and once the user clicks one of the images, I
change the style of the image to put a border around it.
The problem is, once I set off this function to put a border around the
clicked image, the iFrame resets itself. So, if I've scrolled over to
the right a bit and clicked on a pic, the frame resets itself all the
way to the left, so the user would have to scroll back over to see the
pic they just clicked.
I've tried doing an onFocus in the function that adds the style, and
it's not working.
identity=document.getElementById(picid);
identity.focus();
Any ideas?
Basic Focus()
Apr 5, 2006Ive got a really simple problem but I can't figure it out. I've got a
form named bob with one text box name bobtext with a default value of
"http://". When I add onload="document.bob.bobtext.focus()" it focuses
on the text box, but at the beginning. Is it possible to focus on the
text box, but at the end of "http://"? This seems like something easy
so I'm probably making some stupid mistake.
Window.focus()
Apr 19, 2006this is for a browser window that contains a chat app that is an applet... when browser window is not in focus I would like users to somehow get notified when a message arrives, more or less like regular IM apps do.. I did with window.focus(), but I don't really want window to come into focus, I just want it to 'blink' and then stay highlighted.. I tried window.setActive() method (not sure what that method does but wanted to try it) but I get obj-non-supported error in
IE6 with that method ..
