setfocus in web control page

Guest

Hi,

I saw the post here about setfocus. But they are for web form.

Web control page HTML does not have form1. the Jscript there does not work
here.

My question is how to set focus to the text box in web control page?


The following is the html version of the page design:

<DIV style="WIDTH: 992px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 424px"
ms_positioning="GridLayout"><asp:label id="Label3" style="Z-INDEX: 103; LEFT:
344px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 88px" ForeColor="#FF8080"
runat="server">Please login to access private content</asp:label>

<asp:textbox id="txtUserName" style="Z-INDEX: 104; LEFT: 448px; POSITION:
absolute; TOP: 144px"
runat="server"></asp:textbox><asp:label id="lblUserName" style="Z-INDEX:
105; LEFT: 280px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 144px"
runat="server">Enter email address</asp:label><asp:label id="lblPassword"
style="Z-INDEX: 106; LEFT: 280px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 192px"
runat="server">Enter password</asp:label><asp:textbox id="txtPassword"

Hi,

Your code is not well formatted and very difficult to read,
It's very easy, you have to get the clientID of the control to gets the
focus, include a javascript code with it and on the onLoad event fire it.

In the aspx page:

<script>
var controlToFocus ='';
function OnLoadHandler()
{
if ( controlToFocus != "" )
document.all[controlToFocus].focus();
}
</script>

<body onload="OnLoadHandler();">


In the code behind:

this.Controls.Add( LiteralControl( "<script>controlToFocus ='" +
theControl.ClientID + " ';</script>" );


Cheers,

Hi,

Thank you for your help. I guess the clientID is txtUserName.

But the element 'body' can not be nested within 'DIV'.

So this does not compile.

Any idea? -Dale

Hi,

It does compile indeed, as a matter of fact, the only line you have to
include in the code behind (the one which gets compiled) is the Controls.Add

<body> is the tag that start the page, all aspx pages have one, why are you
including it inside a DIV ?
There is only one <body> in your page, just add the onload event to the one
you have.

also the script part can be placed at any place, it's just customary to
place it in the header.

Hi Ignacio,

i do have problem - can not focus in web control page. the cause is web
control page does not have <body> <form1>.

if you open VS and add a web control, you will not see <body> in the html
version of the page.

thanks. -dale

In the code behind:

this.Controls.Add( LiteralControl( "<script>controlToFocus ='" +
theControl.ClientID + " ';</script>" );

Hi,

I saw the post here about setfocus. But they are for web form.

Web control page HTML does not have form1. the Jscript there does
not
work
here.

My question is how to set focus to the text box in web control page?


The following is the html version of the page design:

<DIV style="WIDTH: 992px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 424px"
ms_positioning="GridLayout"><asp:label id="Label3" style="Z-INDEX:
103;
LEFT:
344px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 88px" ForeColor="#FF8080"
runat="server">Please login to access private content</asp:label>

<asp:textbox id="txtUserName" style="Z-INDEX: 104; LEFT: 448px;
POSITION:
absolute; TOP: 144px"
runat="server"></asp:textbox><asp:label id="lblUserName"
style="Z-INDEX:
105; LEFT: 280px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 144px"
runat="server">Enter email address</asp:label><asp:label
id="lblPassword"
style="Z-INDEX: 106; LEFT: 280px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 192px"
runat="server">Enter password</asp:label><asp:textbox
id="txtPassword"
style="Z-INDEX: 107; LEFT: 448px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 192px"
runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:textbox><asp:button
id="Button1"
style="Z-INDEX: 108; LEFT: 448px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 240px"
runat="server"
Text="Login"></asp:button>
<asp:regularexpressionvalidator id="revUsername" style="Z-INDEX:
111;
LEFT:
664px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 144px"
runat="server" Display="Dynamic"
ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*"
ControlToValidate="txtUserName"
ErrorMessage="Enter the email address as :
(e-mail address removed)">*</asp:regularexpressionvalidator><asp:requiredfieldvalidator
id="rfvUsername" style="Z-INDEX: 112; LEFT: 728px; POSITION:
absolute;
TOP:
144px"
runat="server" Display="Dynamic" ControlToValidate="txtUserName"
ErrorMessage="Enter the correct user
ID"></asp:requiredfieldvalidator><asp:requiredfieldvalidator
id="rfvPassword"
style="Z-INDEX: 113; LEFT: 728px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 192px"
runat="server" Display="Dynamic" ControlToValidate="txtPassword"
ErrorMessage="Enter the correct
password"></asp:requiredfieldvalidator><asp:validationsummary
id="ValidationSummary1" style="Z-INDEX: 114; LEFT: 440px; POSITION:
absolute;
TOP: 288px"
Width="364px" runat="server" HeaderText="Please correct the
followings:"></asp:validationsummary><asp:label id="lblSuccess"
style="Z-INDEX: 115; LEFT: 544px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 240px"
runat="server"></asp:label></DIV>

Thanks. -Dale
