JQuery :: Setting A Focus Event Not Working
Apr 19, 2011
I am working in a third party application which has a hookinto their window.onload() function.(it calls my fnCustomOnload. In my fnCustomOnload() function I have tried to bind a focusout event on a particular input and have it call a function callled fnGetRestriction(). The function fnGetRestriction()actually works without errors, I have forced it with the grabfocus.focus (lines 2 and 3)but it is called not being called anytime other than once at the beginning when it is force by lines 2 and 3.. The line that performs the alert() (line 4)works properly all the time. What is wrong with line 5?

I am trying to throw in some client-side validation to my php web form. My problem is that only one field is actually getting validated. Here is the code:
Form: onSubmit="return checkForm(this);"
script: function checkForm(form) {
var firstname = document.getElementById("wpFirstName").value;
var lastname = document.getElementById("wpLastName").value;
if (firstname == "") {
document.getElementById("firstNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").select();
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").focus();
return false;
}else if (lastname == "") {
document.getElementById("lastNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpLastName").select();
document.getElementById("wpLastName").focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
The if statement evaluating the last name field is the only statement that evaluates to true. It seems the first statment is bypassed. Any ideas? PS. the element with the id lastNameError/firstNameError is in a div tag.

I'm opening a dialog box using the jQuery UI dialog methods, this box will display a form, and I would like to autofocus the first element. I'm also modifying tabindex of the different form fields of this new form in order to make them a lot higher than those of the original page, and thus navigate through the form using only the tab key. The issue is that I can correctly change tabindex values, and correctly focus the first element but pressing tab will not focus the next element in my newly added form but seems to act as I was focusing the first "tabindexable" element of my original page. I also note that manually focusing (ie. clicking) the element cause no problem, new tab index order is respected. Does anyone have a clue where it can came from ? Something seems to be messed up in the tabindex order. Tested on FF3, maybe the browser only update tabindex order on "manual" focus and not when modifying attributes ?

I've got this hidden div that pops up using jQuery when the login menu item is clicked.
<div class="entry-wrapper" id="reg-login" style="display:none;">
<div class="t"></div>
<div id="loginFormHolder" class="c">
<div class="close">
<a href="index.php" class="spotlight-close"> </a>
</div> <!-- close -->
<div class="login">
<div> <!-- blank --> .....
What I'm trying to do is setting the input focus on the user_session_username text input and the code is not working. The div pops up but the focus is never put into the user_session_username edit field.

Currently in my html document I use the onload command inthe body section to
set the focus to a certain field. eg
Is there a way to set the focus to another field in a different frame other
than the one that the current document is in?
In my example, I have a frame called "top" that I would like the focus
setting to whenever a certain document is loaded in the frame "main".

I know this isn't related to generic javascript but I didn't found a
group dedicated to the FCKEditor. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
I'm desperately trying to set the focus into a FCKEditor component
(client side). I know that the FCK object exposes a "Focus()" method
(the capital F isn't a spelling mistake). The problem is I don't know
how to bind to this object from my container page (aspx). How can you
reference this object?

There is a tab control on a page with multiple tabs and handful of
controls in each tab. The way it's rendered in html (like grid etc..)
is in table format in tablerows and cells.
On clientside, on form validation in javascript, I would like to set
focus on to one of the tabs
and set the focus to the control on that tab.
I find this (tab) control by looking through all 'td' s and by it's id.
Now that I have "td" control, I would like to set the focus on to this.
Here is what I do. (FindHtmlControlByID method returns the control based on type and id)
firstTab = FindHtmlControlByID('TD','UltraWebTab1td0');
secondTab = FindHtmlControlByID('TD','UltraWebTab1td1');
secondTab.style.visibility = 'visible'
secondTab.focus();
textBox = FindHtmlControlByID('INPUT','uiTextBox1');
textBox.style.visibility = 'visible'
textBox.focus();
textBox.focus() fails with the message it's either not visible or not
enabled or it is a type of control that cannot be focused. If the tab
already had focus, then this works ok.

I would like to know how to set the focus on a radio button (if it is
possible) I tried button[0].focus() but with no luck
The reason that I need to do this is to validate a form. If the user does
not select a radio button I would like my validation code to set the focus
at the first radio button within the pair that was not selected that way
he/she does not have to look for it.

There are many ways for setting focus on form fields. I'm actually looking for some code that automatically detects if there is any form on the page & then automatically sets the focus to the first field of the form.
No need of putting Form Name & Field Name in Javascript. Is there any way to do this ???

I have a page with several different forms. One of these currently has an onsubmit event to run a custom validation program before the action is triggered. This event is currently shown asonsubmit="return validateForm(this)"and works as expected.
I want to be able to use this form in some instances without this validation so I want to take this event out and add it if a certain field has been set before the page was loaded. I'm new to jQuery and thought I'd understood how I could do this but I'm not getting this to work.
First of all I added a class of 'mainform' to this form and then used the following to set the event:
I've tried putting line 4 in quotes but it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

I have a requirement to handle dates by using three fields, a (year) text field and two (month and day) selects. I fill the selects using jQuery, which works beautifully. However, I have an onblur handler for the year field that handles filling the month select and an onblur handler for the month select that handles filling the day select. Part of this is to get the right number of days for a month (and for leap years), but part of it is also to force users to enter the data in order so that I can process it correctly.
However, I check in both the onblur handler of the year text box and the onblur handler of the month select whether or not the year value is entered (since if it isn't, there's no point in continuing to the day field). If there is no year value, I call
$year.focus();
and exit the handler.
Unfortunately, the focus when all this returns is still on the month select. Adding "event.preventDefault()" and "event.stopPropogation()" within the handler have no effect.
I have a feeling that there's something very subtle going on that I'm missing. Among the points I have realized is that calling $year.focus() in the year onblur handler may activate the month onblur handler (since the month is the next input, I assume it gets focus when the year is blurred). This should not have any effect, since both handlers check for the year value just in case - but I wanted to note it in passing.

I have had this function work perfectly in IE and am trying to get it
to work in Firefox. I have seen plenty of questions and answers on the
web for how to get and check the key pressed but nothing about setting
or changing it. I only want uppercase characters in this case. If the
key is a lowercase, it needs to be changed to an uppercase character.
IE lets you use keyCode to change the character code. How do I do the
equivalent in Firefox?
<textarea cols="40" rows="3" name="Rule" id="Rule"
onkeypress="checkUppercase(event);"></textarea>
function checkUppercase(e) { .....

Am I right in assuming that you can NOT set focus() back to a field in
its onChange event? Is there another way - I have validation that I
would like to set the focus back to the invalid field onChange?
Eg:
<input type=text" name="tstfld" onChange="window.alert('Changed!');
this.focus()">

I have a parent element that registered to the keydown event.somewhere down the hierarchy I have a table and some buttons. It appears that after I press the buttons, I only get the keydown event in the parent after 3 key strokes.I put breakpoints and the event is simply not called.I'm guessing this is a focus issue, but couldn't make it work.
