So that everytime my users click on reply or post a thread the cursor is already in the subject field, that way all they have to do is type the subject and/or hit tab to post a thread/reply.

I know this is possible and it should be fairly easy. Just something simple that I thought would help a lot of users.

Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I would like to see in the text box for new replies, in the subject box for new threads.

Hi,

just add this to your template:

PHP Code:


			
function focus(theform) {

document.vbform.XXX.focus();

}

before

PHP Code:


			
</script>

</head>

and replace XXX with the name of the field!

Then
replace

PHP Code:


			
<body>

with:

PHP Code:


			
<body onload="focus()">

Compatable with all browsers?

Birdie501 · #6 07-13-2002, 03:52 PM

It is javascript, so it should work with all browsers but i can not confirm! Please test it

How would you get the number of the subject and text box field?

Logician · #8 07-13-2002, 04:24 PM

it's not number, it's the form field name.. you can find it by checking the source code or relevant template. Eg:

<input type="text" class="bginput" name="title" value="" size="40" maxlength="85" tabindex="1">

name in this field is "title"...(That is subject field of Newreply form)

Birdie501 · #10 07-13-2002, 06:04 PM
