TextBox Focus

How do I set focus after a button is clicked to go directly into a textbox. Or even if its on load have the cursor right on the textbox automaticall Thanks

There are many ways to do that, for example in the button click's event handler you can call the Focus method of the textbox, see the sample code from here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178232.aspx[^]

Create a module level function: Module Module1 Public Function SetFocus(ByVal FocusControl As Control) As String 'Setting focus to supplied control Dim Script As New System.Text.StringBuilder Dim ClientID As String = FocusControl.ClientID 'Building java script With Script .Append("") .Append("document.getElementById('") .Append(ClientID) .Append("').focus();") .Append("") End With Return Script.ToString() End Function End Module call the function above in button click event Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click 'set focus RegisterStartupScript("setFocus", Module1.SetFocus(TextBox1)) End Sub =postmaster http://www.programmingknowledge.com/[^]

In the Page_Load Event, Type in:- Page.RegisterStartupScript("ss", "document.getElementById('" & TextBox1.ClientID & "').focus();") :) Thanks & regards, Suresh Dayma
