Question

I have a simple display project and want to cut out the mouse from the equation, the page only has one field (a search field) and I want the browser to be locked into to the field remove the need for a mouse while keeping it user friend for those who don’t know how to maneuver without a mouse.

Can it be done with jQuery/Javascript? I don’t really know what im search for besides it may have something to do with tab indexing.

Thanks,

Arthur

Since Gaby hasn’t edited, I’ll go ahead and write up the solution. Some of the credit for the code goes to Gaby and Andy E.

$(document).ready(function(){
   var el = $(':text:eq(0)');
   el.focus();
   el.blur(function(){ 
             setTimeout(function() { el.focus(); },0);
           });
});
