Keeping Focus On A Text Field
May 29, 2006
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.

how to do what i wanted. I've got a .pdf file with a bunch of text fields, i would like it to make it so that when the user has focus (is writing in or clicked it) on of the fields it shows a different field with information on how to fill out that field and which field to procede to. Ive figured out how to show a field when focus is on another field, but cant get it to hide again when focus goes to something else.

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:

This is irritating cause i read a arcticle with a solution to this in one of the many newsletters i receive, but then i didn't need it and now i do i can't find it, and i'm searching for days now .
I have say 3 links
link1 --- link2 --- link3
all of then formatted nicelly with CSS. When i select one of then, say link1, it becames with a diferent background color.
What i want is to keep tha backg color even when the user clicks anywhere on the page (thus loosing focus) and until another link is clicked.
I tought this could be possible in a CSS only way, but now i think i have to use some Javascript.

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 a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
<script language="javascript">
fields = 1;
function addMore() {
if (fields = 1) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field2' size='25' /> <span>Field 2.</span>";
[Code]....

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'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()
but nothing seems to work.
How must I do that in Netscape and/or Mozilla?

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 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){
