I'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:
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.
let me say up front that my experience with JavaScript and "Ajax" interactions has been horrific. There are weeks I will never get back because of it. Whenever I encounter something so horrific that it makes me blank my memories of the event, I find myself going back and trying to take different approaches to understanding what happens.
This current round of experiments involves sending and receiving what is effectively an associative array. That is, I want to send dom names and the associated values via XMLHttpRequest calls and on return, get a set of dom value pairs and push them back into the current environment in the browser.
what I need to figure out how to do is associate a series of DOM's with a button, extract the information when the button is pressed, and then present the entire array to a CGI. On return, I would need to take the same array from the CGI and transfer the contents into the specified DOM's
if this is not practical, tell me so and I go do something else which is probably more fun. If it is practical and has been implemented in some toolkit, fantastic. It saves me some pain. If it hasn't been implemented, well, there goes the more hours that I will never get back.
I have a script that runs when the page is loaded to set focus to a field. If I have an alert immediately before I call focus() on the field everything is good. If the alert isn't there, the cursor never shows up in the field...however, it scrolls to the textbox and if I hit tab I move to the field immediately following it which would indicate I really do have focus on the field, yet the cursor isn't there so I can't start typing in the field. I thought it might be an issue with the page not being fully loaded but if that is the case why does it scroll down to the field and move to the next field after hitting tab. This is a hard one to explain and what complicates it more is that it's in an AJAX responseText environment so it's hard to nail down. Any ideas on this?
i got this javascript-function that changes the entries of a selectbo depending from the selection of another selectbox:
function changeBezug(selectedEntry, '$exhibits', .....) {}
the string '$exhibits' holds all the entries for the option Entry i the first selectbox; Unfortunately i get javascript error unterminated string literal an the error pointer points at the first apostroph: function changeBezug(selectedEntry, '
I tried replacing all special chars in $exhibits, even putting th string directly into the function code with php and tried using quote instead..
Now im out of ideas! Maybe im using the wrong replacement for the apostroph... i use ' is that wrong? i also tried ' to no good either.. what's the right one?
I went to the PHP section of this site and posted this same question, but someone told me it's a javascript question. I'm trying to carry a string from one webpage to another. The user inputs some data on page 1, the info gets tested for certain elements, then gets sent to page 2. The problem is the strings aren't transferring and I don't know how to use sessions to transfer them. I need recipeNameEl, ingredientsEl, and descriptionsEl to be stored to a string and then transferred to the page the form's action="" attribute points to.
<script> function checkFields() { var recipeNameEl = document.getElementById( 'recipeName' );
I'm using JS to dynamically change the CSS attrib's of User Input Fields in a form. It works fine for text input fields but does not seem to work at all for TEXTAREAS. (IE6) Is there a tweak that might overcome this limitation? Code:
I was wondering if there is any way with onload that I can highlight (blue color) the select box field while simultaneously placing the mouse cursor or focus on a text box immediately below it?
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()
The user enters a serial number in the "Serial_Number" field and hits enter I would like the cursor to move DOWN to the next "Serial_Number" field. Is this possible??
I have a set of fields(text) that are populated with data. When you tab through the fields some show focus by highlighting the entire word while others do not. What is the reason for this and can I force the highlighting?
How do I set focus on the next textfield in form when there are two characters typed in the textfield before. Like entering serialcodes for installation, you can just keep typing and the characters will appear in the next textfield when the textfield before is full.
I want to get the id of an element to set focus to a particular field in javascript using classname or tagname... Is it possible to do that... I dont want to use document.getElementById to get the id...Or is there any way to set the focus of an element using classname or tagname.... (wihtout using id)
Assuming I have the functions, "isNumber" and "isEmpty", how would I write the HTML INPUT type="text" element such that a person cannot exit the element unless they have typed in a valid number (as defined by the function isNumber) or left the field empty (as defined by isEmpty)? Thus, if they have typed in "aaa" and then pressed "Tab" to go the next element, they'd get a warning message, and be returned to the old element?
Ideally, this solution would work for both the latest versions of Firefox and IE.
When I click on a field, I put the object position in a variableEnviro["lastfocus"] = $(event.target);I call the action and a block of HTML arrived on the page, I place this text and then after, i want the focus to return to the field and I do this:
The xx div is opened as a overlay using jQuery.overlay plugin. Now this works great. But when this form is opened i want to give focus to the first html:text field.
I'm submitting a form when the value of a drop-down menu changes. After that I would like to remove the focus from the field itself. I have tried different things: blur, focus=remove and so on but no one works. How can I remove the focus for a field?
I found the precursor of this script online, I modified a few small things, I ran the results through jslint, I fixed the apparent errors, and then I formatted it. This is what I came up with:
function clearText(thefield){ if (thefield.defaultValue == thefield.value){ thefield.value = ""; } } function echeck(str){ [Code]....
I have a multiple select box and want to be able to select from this box and transfer the selection accross to a div using an "Add" button. I have this working fine but I want to append to the list, rather than replace the list when further selections are made.
I somehow need the function to remember the original selected array and then merge the new selected array and the old array if another sleection is made. This is all I have so far...
function editOptions(action) { var optionsBox = document.getElementById('optionsBox'); var selectedArray = new Array();
I'm trying to make a form with a postal code input. But there are 6 input fields within a div container. When some one types just one letter they automatically go to the next input field this continuing until they reach the last input area.
