Hi,

I have also found this recently: it seems impossible to change the focus using jquery or javascript focus.

I am not sure if this is an easyui issue or a browser one though.

maybe u can change with this

Code:

var t = $('#tx').combogrid('textbox').focus();

// or this

var t = $('#tx').combogrid('textbox').focus();
t.focus();

sorry for my bad english

Hi, yes this is very much what I've been trying. I've put the .focus() function in numerous places, all of which are executed fine by the browser, but seemingly ignored i.e. the focus does not change.

I have faced problems with focus() many times in the past and find that in most cases if you wrap it in a timeout it works:

Code:

setTimeout(function(){$('#xxx').focus()})
