Sven Meier resolved WICKET-6652.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Assignee: Sven Meier
You shouldn't update a textfield via Ajax in response to entering text,
otherwise user input willl surely be disrupted.
>From what I see on Stackoverflow moving the caret to the end of the text isn't
>easy to get working for all browsers. Feel free to submit an improvement.
> Improve setfocus javascript function

> I'm trying to rewrite a simple Angular app in wicket and I'm facing an issue.
> My webapp must validate the text entered by user in real time. I create a
> AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior tirggered by keyup event. the main problem
> is that when wicket validates the input it refocus the component on the html
> placing the caret at the beggining of the field, before the already typed
> text. So if I Digit 'gi' as text and the text is invalid the caret of the
> filed is before the 'g' and not after the 'i'. Is it possibile to have a
> patch or a workaround (i tried to use appendJavascript in my Behavior but
> with no luck).
> Thanks a lot.
