Hi.
I have a page where divs are displayed using a nice simple parallel
Fade/Appear effect. I also fade in the divs on the initial page
load.
In some of the divs, there are input tags. I want to be able to
set focus to the tag.
Trying to do so generates an error.
My fade in code is
new Effect.Parallel([
new Effect.Appear('banner', {duration : 1.00, delay : 0.50}),
new Effect.Appear('vsContainer', {duration : 2.00, delay : 0.50})
],
{sync: true}
);
In vsContainer, there is an element input type=text maxlength=10
name=vsRequest[Vehicle] id=requestVehicle value= /
I want to put the focus on this element.
Normally,
$('requestVehicle').focus();
would do the trick, and if I type that into the console (chrome,
firefox, IE8), then it works just fine.
But not when placed immediately after the effect, I get an error -
essentially $('requestVehicle') is null.
I've tried using ...
myFocus(el){el.focus();}
myFocus.defer('requestVehicle');
But nope.
What would be nice is if there was a way to chain the focus call to
the end of the Effect.Parallel code. If Effect.Parallel fired an event
when the job was finished (for example).
Any ideas?
