[dhileepen chakravarthy]

Dear all,

i want to set the focus and the cursor to the text input control after creation complete of login page!
(like you are entering search text directly in Google without clicking the text box)

Thanks in advance

Add this line to index.template.html

 

<

body scroll="no" onLoad="window.document.${application}.focus();" onkeydown="window.${application}.focus()" >

It will work in IE but not in FF

 

thanks,

when the page load the focus is set to html/browser from Flash player.
The application
doesn't have focus until a user clicks somewhere in the Flex/Flash
application.So you need to write a javascript function to set focus on
the player on when loads.

Its working with IE but its not working with firefox.

How do i fix firefox issue.

Open your swf in the Flash Player, You can get the desired output,
Won't work in browser anyway!.

Try SanderGruger's solution (available at the comments) here,

This works -
call this in the creationComplete of the application -
if(ExternalInterface.available){
ExternalInterface.call("s = function() { document.getElementById
('"+this.id+"').focus(); }");
}
this will get the focus to swf then focus to the required text field
-
focusManager.setFocus(textFieldId);

Hi Dhileepen,

Here is simple solution:

Goto your project >> html-template folder >> index.template.html >>
open it.

Now edit JavaScript in that as follow:-

PUT THIS : document.DocumentName.focus(); ///Document name is your
flex Ex: - main.mxml file just give main

THIS BECAUSE SETFOCUS() JUST FOCUSES FLASH PLAYER NOT BROWSER TO SET
FOCUS WE CAN ADD ABOVE SINGAL LINE IN FOLLOWING CODE AS i DID.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
// Version check for the Flash Player that has the ability to start
Player Product Install (6.0r65)
var hasProductInstall = DetectFlashVer(6, 0, 65);

// Version check based upon the values defined in globals
var hasRequestedVersion = DetectFlashVer(requiredMajorVersion,
requiredMinorVersion, requiredRevision);

if ( hasProductInstall && !hasRequestedVersion ) {
// DO NOT MODIFY THE FOLLOWING FOUR LINES
// Location visited after installation is complete if installation is
required
var MMPlayerType = (isIE == true) ? "ActiveX" : "PlugIn";
var MMredirectURL = window.location;
document.title = document.title.slice(0, 47) + " - Flash Player
Installation";
var MMdoctitle = document.title;

AC_FL_RunContent(
"src", "playerProductInstall",
"FlashVars", "MMredirectURL="+MMredirectURL
+'&MMplayerType='+MMPlayerType+'&MMdoctitle='+MMdoctitle+"",
"width", "${width}",
"height", "${height}",
"align", "middle",
"id", "${application}",
"quality", "high",
"bgcolor", "${bgcolor}",
"name", "${application}",
"allowScriptAccess","sameDomain",
"type", "application/x-shockwave-flash",
"pluginspage", "http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"
);
} else if (hasRequestedVersion) {
// if we've detected an acceptable version
// embed the Flash Content SWF when all tests are passed
AC_FL_RunContent(
"src", "${swf}",
"width", "${width}",
"height", "${height}",
"align", "middle",
"id", "${application}",
"quality", "high",
"bgcolor", "${bgcolor}",
"name", "${application}",
"allowScriptAccess","sameDomain",
"type", "application/x-shockwave-flash",
"pluginspage", "http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"
);
document.DocumentName.focus(); ///Document name is your flex Ex: -
main.mxml file just give main
} else { // flash is too old or we can't detect the plugin
var alternateContent = 'Alternate HTML content should be placed
here. '
+ 'This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. '
+ '<a href=http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash/>Get Flash</a>';
document.write(alternateContent); // insert non-flash content
}
// -->
</script>
