How do I use Javascript to force cursor to specific form field when form field has a name with brackets?
I am using CakePHP as my framework.
On page load, I want to force the cursor to a specific form field where name="data[Project][title]"
I'm trying to use javascript:
This works fine if I change the name to something without brackets, but fails to work with this form name. I have to use th开发者_JAVA技巧is form field name because of how CakePHP processes my form data.
Is there a workaround or another simple way to force the cursor to this form field?
Here is the code I currently have (if you change "data[Project][title]" to "formField" it works):
<body onLoad="document.searchForm.data[Project][title].focus();">
<form action="http://beta.industrialinterface.com/users/mainadd/" method="post" id="create-form" name="searchForm">
<input id="main-input" type="text" class="title-limit" name="data[Project][title]" onClick="this.value='';limitText(60);" onKeyDown="limitText(60);return true;" onKeyUp="limitText(60);return true;" />
Example code? Because otherwise you could simply do:
document.getElementById('id_for_your_input').focus();
If you are using a form and have access to the form element you can do
formelement['data[project][title]'].focus();
example at http://www.jsfiddle.net/fqgxv/
You can use getElementsByName() for this. Note that it returns an array.
Ex:
<body onLoad="document.getElementsByName("data[Project][title]")[0].focus();">
加载中,请稍侯......
