JavaScript - Set Focus To End Of Text In Textbox After Postback?
Oct 27, 2010
I've got a simple ASP.Net form with txtBox and btn.
User click btn, which adds text to an ASP:TextBox in a postback (its adding a known "starter text".
After the postback I'd like the focus to be set to the end of the text in the textbox.
If I call Page.SetFocus(...) or txtBox.Focus() then the txtBox gets focus, but at the beginning of the text - which means if the user starts typing, they'll be in the wrong place.
e.g.
cursor100-01
would like it to be
100-01cursor
I've tried the following in the textbox:
onfocus="alert('focus');this.value = this.value;"
but the "alert" only appears the first two times? Then nothing?
I have a simple page where I want to filter a ListBox based upon a value(s) in a textbox - both are in an UpdatePanel.This works correctly, however, after the postback the textbox had lost focus...so I set focus back in the page_load.Then I noticed that the cursor was now at the beginning of the text when I want it at the end so the user can carry on typing, so I added an onfocus(...) attribute to the textbox to set the value back to itself (see code below).This works the first two times, but then it stops setting focus to the textbox?

I have a search page with 3 TextBoxes that users can filter a search with.
I have put the focus on the TextBox that contains text. If more than one contains text just focus on last TextBox.
[code]...
After the code runs and a user searches, the focus comes to the beginning of the TextBox, not the end where it would be presumed. How to put insert marked at the end of that TextBox?
I have created a async search of a gridview, where the displayed data only shows items that match whatever is typed into the text box. After i type the search the grid refreshes the results, but the focus goes away from the textbox itself, which gets really annoying. is there any way to keep the focus on it?
I need to databind the gridview inside the Ajax UpdatePanel each time user types letter inside my TextBox control. How to override the TextChange event to force it do postback for me?
<script type="text/javascript"> function ace1_itemSelected(sender, e) { var hdCustID = $get('<%= hdCustID.ClientID %>'); hdCustID.value = e.get_value(); </script> [code]...
i am developing a asp.net application where i have a content page derived from master page and inside the page i have a gridview control where i have some bound fields and a textbox to take value and calculate the remaining. I am using the following javascript code.
Before I start to write my problem, I will excuse for my bad English and I hope you can understand me. I have in a ASP.NET Webapplication an AJAX Updatepanel. In this Updatepanel is a Textbox for dynamic search results. When I start to write in the Textbox, the results comes like Google suggest. Now, the focus must be always on the Textbox (inputn field), now metter whereto the User clicks. Currently the ASP.NET updatepanel refreshed after a few seconds when the User starts to type.
I have a text box in a gridview that is causing some problems with user input. The first time the user opens the page the gridview is populated with zero's in all rows textboxes. I set the focus to the first textbox in the Page_Load event but the cursor is placed to the left of the zero and when some users enter data they don't realize the zero doesn't go away so the first row ends up wrong. Once the tab or enter key is hit and the next row is selected, the zero is "selected", for lack of a better term like when the insert key is predded, and once the user starts typing only the new value remains. Is there a way to make the zero in the first row "selected" ?
How do I execute an JavaScript function right when an ASP.NET text box control is populated and focus is still set? The onChange event will not work because I need to programmatically move focus to the next form element after the JavaScript function has executed.
Is is very similar to this question. The marked answer is correct for the context on the question, but after some more testing it did not exactly solve my current issue.
In set the Send button as default button in my page. In the button click event I try to set the focus to the TextBox. When clicking the button the event work fine but While clicking the enter button I cant input text to TextBox.
I have a page with multiple textboxes and each has a button associated with it. This works as a search 'hub', I suppose, where the user can search by ID, name etc. When entering a search term for e.g. name however, pressing enter 'clicks' the very first button on the page (ID search), causing an error if the associated textbox is empty (which it would be if someone meant to search by name). I have attempted to rectify this using JQuery, and have written the following:
I'm simply using the click event so that I can monitor where focus is redirected, but eventually I would use .keypress. However, nothing happens upon clicking a textbox and I can't see for the life of me what is wrong with the JQuery. To elaborate on the problem, the .NET code used looks similar to the following throughout the page.
In my page, I need to enable a text box when user click on check box(checked). I have used javascript for this. It works fine but when there is postback for the page, the textbox becomes disabled again although the check box is checked. But the value in textbox still appears. Is there any method to retain the enabled state for text box on postback other than using hidden values?
I am having problems selecting the text within a TextBox in an UpdatePanel in IE 8. Consider a very simple page that contains a single UpdatePanel. Within that UpdatePanel there are two Web controls:
A DropDownList with three statically-defined list items, whose AutoPostBack property is set to True, and A TextBox Web control
The DropDownList has a server-side event handler for its SelectedIndexChanged event, and in that event handler there's two lines of code:
I have an ASP.NET 2.0 webapp (with C#). I wanted to add a button which, when clicked would highlight selected text. By 'highlight', I mean change the CSS properties of the text so that it can stand out. I think this can be done with some clientside JavaScript.I know that you can assign a Javascript function to the onclick event of an HTML input button, but since I'm not very proficient at JS the function itself I have no idea how to write
I'm allowing a user to use either one of two textboxes to search a database - one is an ID field, and one is a freetext field. I'm using ASP.NET with C# btw.Anyway, all I need to do is have it so when a user clicks on one of the text boxes, the other text box text is simply deleted, so the other text box is blank. How would I do this? I'm guessing JavaScript is the solution.
I have the following code which sets the focus of the textbox, but I now also want th text in the textbox to be highlighted, but without the use of JavaScript. I have tried using JavaScript but cannot get it too work, is there any other way to do it?
Protected Sub GridView1_RowEditing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewEditEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowEditing GridView1.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex BindData() GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).FindControl("txtTargetAmount").Focus()
