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]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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.

Im trying to fire an ajax event when a user leaves a text field. But neither the focus/blur is firing when the text field contains data.
Am I using the correct events?
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.

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 web site where multiple html pages are opened at a time & messages are received or those pages are refreshed automatically using meta-tag.
what I want is whenever that page is refreshed, the particular html window should notify user (as user may have opened other html window), now notification could be by setting focus to that html window which is refreshed, but then this will distract & frustate the user as he was referring other html window. What I would like to do is make that window blink or some notification like yahoo or msn mail received. But I want this kind of feature in HTML/Javascript.
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){

}).

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.
first, i put the object on a variableEnviro["lastfocus"] = $(event.target);after that i do an action and the data come back from the httpRequestthen I do that$(Enviro["lastfocus"][0]).focus();But nothhing append, no error bot no result.

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:

I've got a strange problem in IE that I wonder if anyone has seen
before. Basically, I've got a two window scenario. The parent window
opens the child via window.open(). The child contains a form and
submissions are processed in the child window. When the child window
form is submitted and the results are returned, an alert box is thrown
up via setTimeout("alert(....)", 2000). For some odd reason, when
this alert is displayed, focus is transferred back to the parent
window with the alert box on top. When you press the OK button on the
alert, focus is transferred back to where it should be; on the child
window. This doesn't happen all the time. But it happens. Is there
something I can do to solve this mystery?
This JS code is on RoR+ImgMap site.I've tweak several portion of ImgMap, specifically around line 2205 of the file imgmap.js by adding code.so that when the user draws a shape, the focus will be set to the respective href field, instead of the default behavior - adding new row(imgmap form).

I've played around with the events to get the submit button to work in FF, IE, Chrome and Safari -- and I've gotten the enter button to work before with some stock code, but here's the catch: when the user presses enter, i want the focus to leave the input box. I don't care where it goes (submit button, I suppose?) but i need it to leave the input field so the onfocus="clearText(this);" event can fire when they return to type in a new income.

Is there a reason why setting focus to a textbox input, also gives
focus to a submit button on the page, to where if you click enter in
the text box, the submit button will be clicked.
The default behaviour of focus() method is displaying the cursor at start of the char(In FF focusOffset is 0(zero) and anchorOffset is 0(zero)). I need to display the focus at end of char after calling focus() method.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs 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.
