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.
View 4 RepliesI'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:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to set focus to the first field in the page's only form, when the page opens. I suspect that this might involve some client-side coding.
Surely by now someone here has done this in a PHP context.

I have managed to create a very basic form validation script that I can retrospectively add into current forms with the least effort.
As far as the validation goes I am sure that the script is not pretty, but it does work. However, I have failed to manage to get it to return the focus to the first field that errors.
My abortive attempts are not included in the attached script because I have tried and failed with many different attempts that I have confused myself. I would appreciate any advice that could point me in the right direction to place the focus in the first error field found. Code:
Is this possible? I'm sure it's something simple with window.onload

I'm developing am income tax calculator, and everything is going swell. Currently the user can type in their adjusted gross income (AGI), hit submit, and learn the amount of income tax they would pay, their tax rate, and their income after tax.
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.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function TotalGrossPerYear() {
var Calc = document.NetIncome;
if (Calc.InputRad[0].checked) {

I have a form which open in a jQuery Fancybox Window. The fancybox window opens automatically when the page loads. When it loads, I would like it to set focus on the username field in the form in the Fancybox window. I have found that this must be done when fancybox is envoked, thus I have tried the below code which does not work :
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
$("#hidden_link").trigger('click');
document.getElementById('login_form.username').focus();
});
</script>
The form name is "login_form" and the field name is "username".
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 RelatedI 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 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?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using JS to dynamically change the CSS attrib's of User Input Fields in

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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAssuming 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.
