I thought about it a bit more and you're right, inline code should fire.
So I did a test and I can get the following code to work and set focus after
the ajax call.
here's index.cfm
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<script src="/jscript/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajax({ url: "/testCode/getCode.cfm", context: document.body, success:
function(data){
// do nothing;
$('#mydata').html(data);
}});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<DIV ID="mydata" style="background-color:#eaeaea;border:1px solid
#c7c7c7;height:400px;"></div>
</body>
</html>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's getCode.cfm
<cfform name="LoginForm">
<table id="LoginBox">
<tr height="21">
<td width="100"><b>Access ID</b></td>
<td width="100"><cfinput name="AccessID" validate="range"
range="1000,4999" value="" size="8" required="yes" message="A valid Access
ID is required" /></td>
</tr>
<tr height="21">
<td><b>Password</b></td>
<td><cfinput name="Password" type="password" value="" size="8"
required="Yes" message="A password is required" /></td>
</tr>
<tr height="21">
<td colspan="2"><span class="fineprint">Remember me on this
computer</span><input type="checkbox" name="Remember" value="Yes"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<cfinput name="Submit" type="image" value="Submit"
src="../Buttons/MSubmit.png" />
</cfform>
<script>
document.LoginForm.AccessID.focus();
</script>
