For me Javascript focus()
method is working fine if I use it with a button and onClick event, but with onBlur
from a text box, it is not working. Can anyone guide me on this?
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function displayResult()
{
var inp1=document.getElementById("text1").value;
var inp2=inp1.length;
if(inp2==0)
{
alert("Field 1 cannot be left Empty");
//document.getElementById("text1").value="";
document.getElementById("text1").focus();
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" name="text1" id="text1" onBlur="displayResult();"/>
<input type="text" name="yext2" id="text2" />
</body>
</html>
It's not possible to reapply focus to an element when its blur event triggers. Use a timer with an interval value of 0
to delay the call to focus until afterwards:
function displayResult() {
var inp1 = document.getElementById("text1").value,
inp2 = inp1.length;
if(inp2==0) {
alert("Field 1 cannot be left Empty");
//document.getElementById("text1").value="";
window.setTimeout(function () {
document.getElementById("text1").focus();
}, 0);
}
}
