Focusing on Field

Focusing on Field

Question:
I am using onblur method on text fields. Based on Validation I want to put the focus back on field.

function fldfocus(fldname) {if (navigator.appName=="Netscape") {document.Layers[fldname].Focus();else {document.all[fldname].focus();}}

On Netscape it is not working.

Answer:
Here’s how I would do it instead:

function fldfocus(fldname) { thisField = eval("document.formName." + fldname) thisField.focus()}
