I have two form elements, the first one I'm testing for a specific content length (5). If there is not that much content in the box, I would like it to continue to have focus.
However my code below will not set the focus back.. What am I missing?
i am having trouble understanding what the difference is between BLUR and FOCUS. I need to include these functions in my form and i am unsure what these features do and how i incorporate these into my form.
I 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
function two_focus() { document.getElementById("two").blur();
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!
I'm having problems with applying focus() to an element inside a blur() event handler. I get different results in different browsers. Specifically, IE and Opera seem to work fine, Firefox doesn't seem to do anything, and Chrome and Safari only do half of the job. Basically, I have an <input> with a blur() event handler attached to it. The event handler contains the code to apply focus to that same input, effectively disallowing the user to remove focus from the input.
I'm working with ClueTip and have run into some oddities.In particular, I want to show ClueTip when a textbox receives focus.The source shows me that I can use activation:'focus' for this and that will result in the cluetip showing on focus and disappearing on blur. Showing the cluetip is working fine, blurring is not.[code]
I have a form with a certain number of elements, i want it to at first only display the first, then when i deselect that element the next one is shown and focus moved to that and so on until the end of the form. Im new to jQuery and just
I only want to set the code to alert one when I am out of 'focus' but the alert keeps piling up if I click on the input field and out of 'focus' more than one?
i want to control the 'Enter' key to set focus to the next element in the form(instead of 'Tab'). and i want to know which element had the focus when the Keypress even of the form is called. how can i get that?
I need to have the cursor appear in the first input box on various pages. When I use the onLoad event in the body tag it works, but anywhere else it doesn't.
The problem is aside from my intro page, most of my other pages use a header and footer on the server side. The body tag is inside the header so I don't have access to it on the other pages. I tried adding a simple function at the bottom of the page, but it does not work.
<script> function setFocus(){ frm.Name.focus(); } setFocus(); </script>
I'm trying to create a control which when the mouse button gets pressed on one div an absolute positioned div pops up in place of the cursor. From there the cursor should interact with the dialog before the mouse button is released. In other words one element will catch onmousedown, display the popup, and the popup element will catch onmouseup. This works fine in IE as the popup automatically accepts following events, but my problem is in Firefox.
In Firefox everything behind the popup still receive events even though they can't be seen (hidden by the popup). I have to release the mouse button and then click on the popup again before it accepts the onmouseup event.
I also used a different cursor on the popup to see if Firefox recognized it was there at all. Still the cursor doesn't change until I release themouse button and move the cursor across the popup element.
I've tried focus/blur, timeout delays, hiding the first element (the one which receives onmousedown) but nothing works.
The only thing that works is hiding the entire body and then using setTimeout to show the entire body again 1ms later. Obviously though that is very ugly.
I'm trying to build a data navigation utility that will allow a central "map" page to control a number of tab pages that are loading individual pages from a large set of HTML. All are local file://localhost/, with localhost popups enabled. (for dev/testing all popups are enabled since firebug 1.3.3 has problems loading localhost .js code) preference to "raise and lower windows" has been enabled I am using firefox 3.0.8 on FreeBSD 6.4
Anyway, I can't get window.focus() and blur() to work between cooperating tab/windows who know each other's names.
Here following are two cooperating mirror tab pages that i'm trying to get working. Have tried a number of combinations of the focus() and blur() calls. Have tried with/without messaging. Messaging works fine.
I have noticed that the calling tab seems to unload/reload as a result of the click event. This still allows the message to get through OK, but I guess the reload could be taking the focus again.
An annoying alert() dialog could of course get focus to the message receiver, but it requires another click to get it out of the way.
The concept of these focus() and blur() calls is so simple, and I've searched all over the web for examples, but nothing seems applicable.
Have also seen that this may be a bug in Firefox.
======== code for "mirror" pages "focus1" and "focus2" follows:
This is a really basic question: what does blur mean, or what does it do when used in links as described below? I've tested it on Firefox 3.6 and Opera 11 and it behaves as I hope except for one thing. During testing if I use both keyboard and mouse to navigate within the same session, the browser history for the 'other' method is wiped out; it won't go backwards beyond the most recently used method. Is this not a surprise when you know what blur really means? I want the following (assuming Javascript is enabled):
a) Keyboard users to see a focus outline on navigation links. b) Keyboard users to see the outline still there if they use the browser Back button, and continue tabbing from that link onwards. c) Mouse users to NOT see an outline if they use the browser Back button.
The problem is that now I have a div.Field with TinyMce so an iframe inside it.Something like:
<div class="Field"> <iframe> <html>
[code]....
I need to blur the div when the mouse "focus" the iframe body.And of course blur out when it doesn't.How can I add thisfunctionalityto my code?I tried a few changes but none of them worked.
I've used this plugin many times and this is the first problem I've had with it (1.8.1). I've uploaded my standalone version (unstyled) here to demo: [link redacted, see reply for solution] try submitting the form, then focusing on some fields and attempting to resubmit. I have a form with 6 fields, all required (class attribute 'required' has been added to them all). On submit, only 2 of the fields display an error message as they should. The other fields do not act as required. Filling in data for the 2 working fields and re-submitting will work, when it shouldn't be.
However, if I click through to focus on the fields, they will appear to "get" the validator property. Clicking submit how, however, will actually toggle the error message on and off. I have never seen this kind of behavior in the past and am scratching my head how to proceed. I have checked in Chrome and Firefox, I have re-downloaded the plugin and used various jQuery versions, I have stripped out the functionality to a completely separate standalone page to remove any potential conflicts. Markup and JS validates. No luck.
I am creating a plugin that gives keyboard navigation to tabular table acrossmultipletables.When I have rowsthat run off screen I would like to scroll the window down.. and the reverse is true, when navigating up.Logically I need to get the position of the element that has focus and specify how much to scroll the window.
Is there a way to set the focus on a form field without using focus()? I use ajax to build the form and if I try to set the focus using focus() an error is generate because of the form hasn't been built by ajax. So, it would be nice if I could set the focus() as I built the form.
I have created a form with malsup's Form Plugin wherein it submits on change of the inputs. However, after each submission, the form loses focus, which forces the user to click on the next input element after each input change, which is a bit annoying. Is there a way I could set the form to automatically focus on the next input element after the submission depending on which input element the form was submitted from? [code]...
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.
I've been struggling trying to get a small order form to work the way I want it to. Here is a link to the live page: [URL] And here is the code in question:
[Code]...
I have two questions...
Question 1 How can I make this piece of script act a little smarter. Look at the order form, I'm catering for up to 4 people and providing lunch for them. If they select 3 people and the spaghetti bol for lunch, it's only adding $10 where it should be adding $30. Obviously this is simple multiplication but since the values in my form are prices it makes it a little tricky. I'm guessing an onselect on the first part of the form which changes the pricing of the other items would be the way to go, but how do I do this?
Question 2 The "Total Price" is placed before the <form> tag by the script. This is ok but it's not where I want it. How can I position this text elsewhere in the document?
The trouble is, is that some pages are very long and some are very short, so using offsetTop is obviously not bringing the form into full view ;-( Still keeping all the functions detailed in the code below, how would you adjust the code to achieve the aim of always showing the form, when clicking on the button to show the form, regardless of how long or short the page is please?
My image upload form has a choice of either upload image by entering url or by browsing for a file, I'm trying to empty the file-input input if you focus on the url-input. I've tried bother these events on click/blur but neither seem to work like they would for a checkbox or text input. [code]...
