I am trying to use onBlur to get to pictures to pop up when a user leaves a text box. The only requirement is that a user must enter any value into the text box if they want the pictures to pop up. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out why my code will not work
Code:

I am having one td and inside td using one control(it may be any control like textbox,combobox) and am using onblur events for td and aswell as the control inside td. when am moving focus from this td to another td the parent onblur event is firing first and then child control(like textbox, combobox) onblur event is firing. The problem is am validating that entire td (what ever the value user updates) in one method. so in this scenario that validate method is calling when i move the focus onto child control. After entering the value in the child control that child control onblur event is firing and am unable to fire the parent control(td) onblur event.
I have two textboxes, each of them is controlled with a function called checknumber. It controlles if they are empty or a valid number and I connected this function to onBlur event of these textboxes. The problem is that when I wrote an invalid number to the first and click the second one, It gives continuously error messages. How can I solve this problem ?
1. Have the "Total" field update whenever a user changes a value in field 1 or field 2. 2. Perform some validation on those fields 3. Have the onblur and validation NOT fire when the user clicks the Cancel button.
Problem: click in the first field, don't enter a value, then try to press Cancel - the validation is happening, and I don't want it to.
This third point above seems to be the kicker. Anyone know a way I can go from a text field to clicking the "Cancel" button without firing the onBlur event? I normally don't like doing validating on-the-fly like this, but my application has the requirement of updating that Total box dynamically, so I have to perform field-level validation as I go....
I cannot seem to get these two events to work together. If I change them to say onmousedown and onmouseup, they seem to work fine. In this case, the onclick appears to work properly but onblur does not kick in.
For those who have been using Outlook Express, you must be pretty used to the fact that whenever you focus on the preview section, the header for the preview turns from grey to blue, while the text turns from black to white. Code:
I have few textfields and dropdowns in my jsp, form is submitted on clicking an image link.
In case there is an error for instance some text field is left empty, then message is displayed below respective fields ( using spans, inner html). The message is displayed onblur event of the field. So if there was an error then message is displayed, now if the user corrects the error and clicks the link then first the message disaapears ,which is desired ,but he has to click again to submit the form. please suggest a way to handle this. So that user doesn't have to click the link twice to submit the form.I tried having onmousedown and onfocus events on image , but then sometimes the form was submitted twice which gave backend errors.
I am currently working on a website that administers timed online tests, and we are trying to implement some measures to reduce the ability to 'cheat' while the test is running. These include disabling right clicks, and handling keystroke events. Additionally, we would like to end the test if the maximized browser popup window where the test is loaded happens to lose focus during the testing session.
I have implemented some code to call an event handler that will end the test if a window.onblur event is triggered during the session. It is working fine in Firefox, but IE seems to interpret window.onblur events differently. Basically, in Firefox I can click anywhere within the window without a window.onblur event triggering, but in IE if I click outside of the test table or form element etc. into whitespace, for instance, it fires.
In addition to using window.onblur, I have also tried top.onblur, and also putting onblur in the body tag of my html: <body bgcolor="#ffffff" onBlur="lostfocus()"> Again, both work in Firefox, but neither of these alternate methods seem to restrict IE in the appropriate manner.
So my question is this: is there any way to craft this such that IE will play nice and trigger the event ONLY when someone clicks outside of the browser window (on to the start menu, for instance)?
<script language="javascript"> <!-- window.onblur=lostfocus; function lostfocus(e) { // student has attempted to cheat, end test } // --> </script>
function checkLossDate() { alert("Test"); var lossDD=document.frmSicsClmHdrSetup.txtLossddFrom.value;
The first three lines of the function.The first alert not being called. I have used the same logic in one of my other JSP's.There it worked fine. I know i am missing some silly things.
I'm having some trouble with the "onBlur" event in the BODY tag. Ideally, what I want to happen is that when someone leaves window A, window A executes a command. I had put
<body onBlur="savePage();">
I have a couple of problems. On IE 6 (win2000), whenever I put the cursor focus on a textfield within window A, the "savePage" function is invoked. And on Mozilla Filefox 0.9.1, the event never launches even when I leave the window.
Does anyone know how I can solve these respective problems?
In IE6, I get 'Object doesn't support this property or method'. I'm using document.forms[0] elsewhere, and I have found examples on the web using this syntax, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Can I not do this in onblur?
Is there a better way to do it? (I'm a Java programmer, not too experienced in JavaScript.)
I have a problem where there is an onBlur check for a valid entry. The javascript checks the entry and if it is incorrect it does an alert and then puts the focus back onto the incorrect field, so valid data has to be entered.
This is a generic function so it uses 'this' - onBlur="chkMonthDob(this);"
The function then checks it and puts the focus back on 'this' if it is wrong. This all works fine in IE but in Firefox it does not put the focus back.
Using the Firefox getaround :- setTimeout("document.orgsp.d1_org_dob_mth.focus()", 1); works, however, when it is called with 'this' as a parameter you don't know what the field is to be focussed on, so I had hoped that putting :-
var focusField = myField.id; setTimeout("document.getElementById(focusField).focus()", 1);
would work - but Firefox say focusField is undefined.
I have a problem with one simple script, which works in every browser, just not in IE6 and IE7. You can see the script at [uRL] - when you click on the iframe, you should see "clicked at the bottom". But it doesn't work in IE6 and IE7.
why my onblur() function is not working in javascript.Code is pretty simple. Its a text box with an onblur() function showing an alert. I have used it long back.. But i could not figure out why its not working now.. I dont know what the silly mistake i have made.
In my project I'm using onblur event in four text boxes and using that onblur event i wanna call different javascript functions i.e', like first text box onblur="test()" and in second text box onblur="test1()" etc. But only one onblur onblur is calling the function and other onblurs are not working. So pls tell me how can i put more the one onblur event and javascript functions in a single page.
I have a link that has a UL drop down. When I click off of both the link and the UL I want the drop down to disappear. Right now it only disappears after I click off of the link.
I am trying to use a simple JavaScript command to close the window when it is no longer in focus: BODY onBlur=window.close();
This works in IE 5.1 for Mac and in Mozilla/Netscape, but in the Windows IE browsers I have tried, clicking anywhere closes the window, even clicking on the Flash animation in the window itself. Very bad. Code:
I have an AJAX application for a form that has 4 columns and 170 rows. It uses an onblur call to update a database each time you move out of a cell. This works fine.
Client wanted to validate for a number so I added a function to check for this and an alert call if the numer check failed. This works fine.
However, dismissing the alert results in the focus moving to the next cell rather than returning to the invalid cell. Big problem. I have been successful in coding focus to go to any other cell in the table except the one with the errror. Code:
And by the way I already tried this in the body tag:
And the body tag thing actually DID close the window if the user clicked on the original calling page. BUT the window also closed if the user clicked on a combo box on the popup (because the body lost the focus), and that was not good..
I have to take this class online and it requires that I sit for 45 minutes if I start to do something different say go on Facebook in a new tab it stops the timer... I use Google Chrome as a web browser and was wondering if there is anyway to use the console to remove the Window.blur trigger
I'm trying to use onKeyUp and onBlur to validate html table field text entryI'm using Firefox in Windows XP, and Javascript is turned on.Mind taking a look to see why it's not working?
