What makes you think that the only way to focus on something is by clicking on it?
I would aproach your problem from a different angle. I would ask the browser to give me whatever has the focus via document.activeElement: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/document.activeElement http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/ms533065(v=vs.85).aspx Or simply use the focus selector in jQuery: http://api.jquery.com/focus-selector/ On Thu, Jan 30, 2014 at 2:15 PM, Rafael Barrera Oro <boraf...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hello everyone! > > I'm trying to to mantain the focus of the last component that was clicked > regardless of the refresh of part of the page when certain text field > changes.
