How To Focus On A Text Input?
Jul 23, 2005
I'd like to have the cursor in the login form's username input text field when users load the login page. It works fine with the following implementation:
<body onload="document.login.username.focus();">
<form name="login" method="post" action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>">
<input type="text" name="username" onLoad="self.focus();">
The problem is that the input field's name cannot be simly "username",
because it posts an element of an array, therefore the name is
"upd[username]".
Unfortunately when the above implementation is modified according to
the input field's name, I receive a script error.
<body onload="document.login.upd[username].focus();">
<form name="login" method="post" action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>">
<input type="text" name="upd[username]"
onLoad="self.focus();">
I assume I'd need to escape 'upd[username]' on the 'body onload' line
somehow, but I don't know how.

I have an input (type="text") with some default text telling the user to enter something in the box. The input tag includes an onmousedown event which runs javascript function to clear the default text so the user can start entering their own text.This setup behaves in two possible ways, one is good and one is bad:
Good: If the user clicks inside the text box, but after the default text, the text gets cleared and the cursor shows up at the beginning of the text box.
Bad: If the user clicks inside the text box, but directly on the default text, the text gets cleared, but the cursor is not displayed and the text box does not have the focus. In order to start typing, the user must click on the text box again.
So my question is: If the cursor is inside a string of text which gets cleared, is there a way to reinstate the cursor and the text box focus?

I have a problem created by my complete [rookie] status – only second time venturing into jQuery. I created a simple shopping cart using php and the PayPal buttons (1: buy now, 2: add to cart). The php back end does it great, it generates the table and the buttons and everything works just like it’s supposed to; Except, I forgot to add sizes. So I found out what I need to add, and I realize that the way the buttons work, I will have two different text boxes for size. Not very visually appealing, and since I’m not submitting this to the server before it goes to PayPal to pay, I cannot modify it with php the way I normally would. jQuery / javascript are my only hope of making this work. What I want to do:Have a single textbox where [size] is entered by the user.
Copy the value from the [correct] text box to the Value=”” section of the now hidden field in the PayPal form That way, no matter whether they [BUY NOW] or [ADD to CART] the right size is submitted to the PayPal shopping cart. This is the actual PayPal code that I’m trying to change
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="on1" value="Size" maxlength="200">Size</td>
[code].....
I got this far, and then decided to find how to insert the "enteredVALUE" into the right place in the input text field (what I called output) and I've not been able to figure out how to stuff it in there.

I've written the following function who works great in IE
function OnlyCharacter(tekst)
{
if (tekst.length == 1)
{
if (tekst >= "A" && tekst <="Z")
{return true}
}
window.alert ("Only uppercase");
form1.Sectie.focus();
}
But in Netscape or Mozilla I can't bring back the focus on the field
(Sectie) when the input is not correct
I've tried the following :
1) var box;
box = document.forms[0].elements[1];
box.focus()
2)document.getElementById("Sectie").focus();
3) document.form1.Sectie.focus()
but nothing seems to work.
How must I do that in Netscape and/or Mozilla?

I have taken a class on PHP and started making some math homework and drills for the tutoring I do. I have asked my kids for feedback and they are telling me that it is inconvenient to hit tab to go to the next text box (They have small arms/fingers..)I then thought of a brilliant ideaLet�s say it was 12 divided by 3. If they wrote a 4 in the input area, the JavaScript would recognize the correct answer and automatically move to the next box. However, if they wrote a 3 in the box, the JavaScript wouldn't move over.This kills two birds with one stone. The inconvenience of hitting tab or clicking on the next box disappears, and they are forced to put in the correct answer.Ironically, I have learned PHP and skipped over JavaScript. Which code would I use to do this?

how to do what i wanted. I've got a .pdf file with a bunch of text fields, i would like it to make it so that when the user has focus (is writing in or clicked it) on of the fields it shows a different field with information on how to fill out that field and which field to procede to. Ive figured out how to show a field when focus is on another field, but cant get it to hide again when focus goes to something else.

I have some accordions within jquery tabs. Within some of the accordions I have input boxes, select boxes etc. I have no issues with the select boxes, but with the input boxes clicking into them does not give focus to them and I cannot type anything in. However, right-clicking a couple of times do then allow text to be types in.
Example section from accordion with input that cannot get focus:
<h3><a href="#">Search by a reference</a></h3>
<div>
<fieldset>
<label for="invoiceRef">Invoice Reference</label> <input type="text"
[Code].....

I would like to test if a particular input field has focus before allowing an event to take place. How can I do this, I tried using:
if ($('input#div_name').focus()) { do_something... }
But I guess many of you already know that in this case all it did was transfer focus to input#div_name - Which is not what I wanted to do - I wanted to only test if input#div_name had focus.

The function below will automatically move to the next input field in the event that a user hits the enter key. I'm trying to modify it so that it moves to the next input field with a tabindex set. So, in the example below, it'll move to the next input field chronologically, instead of how they're ordered on the page itself:
<input type="text" name="a" tabindex="1" />
<input type="text" name="b" tabindex="3" />
<input type="text" name="c" tabindex="2" />
how I can do it?
Code:
$('input').live("keypress", function(e) {
/* ENTER PRESSED*/
if (e.keyCode == 13) {
/* FOCUS ELEMENT */
[Code]....

I'm having a problem returning focus back to an input field in Netscape. The
code works in IE and Opera but not in netscape6+.
Basically I have a function that is called upon exiting a form field, if the
value validates properly it returns true and calls another function, if it
doesn't validate the field it returns false and I want to give focus back to
the sender and highlight all of the text in the field.
The problem is that while IE and opera return the curser back to the field -
Netscape ignores the focus statement (I still can't find any examples as to
how to return the curser and highlight the text in the field). Code:

Basically I want to prevent a user from moving to another field if the current one is invalid (non-numeric).I've tried a few things that I though would do the job, I've also tried using the change event with the last line (resetting the focus to the current element) but no dice.
jQuery('.setupprice, .monthlyprice, .quantity','#config_dialog').live('focusout',function(e)
{
var val = parseFloat(jQuery(this).val());

I have just started using jQuery and getting familiar with the syntax. I have a simple function I want to run that will add a "focus" class when a textbox receives focus, and remove it when it loses it. I have the following code:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("input[type='text'], input[type='password']").focus(function () {
$(this).addClass("inputFocus");
alert('Handler called');
[Code].....
The code appears to run normally, but I don't see any alerts pop up when I give focus to a textbox or leave it. I have examined what jQuery is doing, and it selects the dozen or so textboxes on my page correctly and iterates through them, but afterward I don't see any "onfocus" or "onblur" events as being attached in the IE Dev Tools.
These textboxes are all hidden on the page to start with, but are accessible through the DOM.
