Re: tapestry.form.focusField problems
Hello Bill & Jesse,
I've been working with this great Form methods to just don't use the
focus... Is working fine, but I have a problem... I'll try to explain the
problem:
I am working with IE6 (now the most used Browser), jdk5, tomcat 5.5,
tapestry 4.1.2. I have a page where there is are a form, and also some dojo
dialogs. These dojo dialogs are hidden (style='display:none'). The problem
is that in when I load that page, and the Form.focus binding is set to true
(the default), the IE6 gives me an error, because the first DOM focusable
element in the html is invisible (in fact is inside the dojo dialog which is
invisible => display:none). In general IE6 gives an exception when trying to
set the focus to a n invisible input.
This become more important when I see that the dojo dialog doesn't work,
because when the JS error appears the rest doesn't work. To me a simple
workarround would be to add a javascript try-catch to avoid stopping the JS
execution. I am not a JS expert and maybe ther e is a better solution ...
what do you think? There is another solution?
Thanks in advance,
robert

There's probably something that can be done, but most likely it will
never be done unless it shows up in JIRA.
