Javascript - Set Always Focus On Textbox (Updatepanel)
Oct 4, 2010
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 Textbox and a few update panels. But each time the update panel clicks, then the focus on the textbox is gone So for example, we all know that when a user clicks on a textbox, there will be a blinking | symbol. But each time my panel updates, the focus on the textbox goes. Does anyone know how i could keep the focus on? as in, each time there is an update, still keep that textbox | symbol blinking.
On the home page of my site I have an UpdatePanel with a Timer which ticks every couple of seconds. Un-related to that I have a user login forum (username / password) If you are typing your username into the textbox while the timer ticks, it takes focus off the textbox.
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?
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="ListTest.aspx.cs" Inherits="SalesForceTest.ListTest" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head runat="server"> [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.
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?
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.
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.
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 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 5 textboxes in aspx page, and their AutoPostBack property is True. When I write something to first textbox and press tab key to write something to second textbox, the second textbox don't be focused. I have to select second textbox with mouse to write something it. I want to focus the second textbox by pressing tab key after write something to first textbox. HOW Can I do this?
using vb.net/asp.net 2005 after the user clicks on a button in the buttonClick event I am trying to set the focus at the end of the function simply as follows:
[Code]....
However the focus is instead going to another button. The tabIndex property is not set on any controls on the page.
I am validating my text box with regular expression validator(Email). What i need is if i enter a wrong format and if i click on tab t should not move to next text box.
I have two text boxes inside an update panel , what I am trying to do is when the text inside the first text box changes I want the focus to move to the second box, somehow this is not working for me I am pasint below the snap shot for the ASP code and the page behind code for it
I have a 2 textboxes txtA & txtB . txtB has TextboxWatermarkExtendertxtA has postback which sets the focus to txtB in the code behind.But due to the Ajax extender the focus is getting on to txtB.
