Elemental Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hey Folks, I have the following javascript <head><script type="text/javascript"><!--function setFocus(){document.getElementById("emailAdd").focus();}//--></script></head> and this is my html <body onload="setFocus()">..........<form>..... <input type="text" id="emailAdd" class="email" maxlength="45" /></form> but it's not working on either FF, IE or Op (haven't tried Sf). I also have a script on the page that's for a text scroller but that's working fine. I ran it through DebugBar and it fired correctly so I'm thinking it's the scroller script that's making it bug outHere's the script: <div id="marqueecontainer"><div id="vmarquee"><!-- ****************************************************** Quotes //--><script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[var scrollerwidth="280px"var scrollerheight="160px"var scrollerspeed="1" // Scrollers content goes here!

Synook Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 The scroller script has this line: window.onload=populate - so it looks like the onload in the body tag is being reassigned. You'd need to replace that line so both functions are run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffman Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 That is, delete that line from your scroller script, delete the onload statement from your body tag (you don't want javascript there anyway), and add this to your main script: window.onload = function () { populate(); setFocus();} I did not study the doc closely enough to see if the sequence of those two statements matters. If weird stuff happens, try reversing the sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synook, Deirdre's Dad, Thank you both for your reply, much appreciated.Thank for telling me, 'Dude, you need to get some sleep, this 4 or 5 hours a night thing ain't good for you.'I saw the populate() call whe I ran it through DebugBar. Saw it, it's the first of two, and it din't register. Thanks guys, I'm going back to bed now.Peace,Elemental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
