top-left control

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 28.2005

Hi,

I am a JavaScript newbie (have long experience in C/C++).
I have to set focus on top-left input controll on my page. I have no idea how to do that. The page is *.aspx and code-behind is C#.
I think that it would be easiest in JavaScript.

Please help.

Thank you.

@CharlesMar 28.2005 — Try

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
onload = function () {document.forms[0].elements[0].focus()}
// -->
</script>

@iljeauthorMar 28.2005 — Is element[0] always a top-left one?

what about bottom-left?

what about bottom-left?[/QUOTE]They are numbered sequentially starting from 0. That's why I suggested that you give it a try.

Another option is to give your element a name and use something like:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
onload = function () {document.forms[0]['bottom-left'].focus()}
// -->
</script>

Success!
