Hi Steve,

I need to have a focus on a field in the new form. I know how to do it in a form but on Xataface I don’t know have the onLoad event. I tried to create in javascript.js a bodyOnload() function but no result.

Code: Select all

function bodyOnload(){ document.getElementById('nom_famille').focus(); }

Can you put me on the right track ?

Thank you

Jean

I seem to recall adding this functionality to the fields.ini file a while back. Try using the widget:focus directive in the fields.ini file:

e.g.

Code: Select all

[myfield]     widget:focus=1
