Question

Im trying to capture keypresses from an input and then focussing an element.

<input id="asdfasfd1" />
<input id="asdfasfd2" />

<select id="currency"><option>bla</option></select>

​$(function() {

   var currencyElement = $('#currency');

   $('#asdfasfd1').bind('keypress', function(event) {

      event.preventDefault();

      currencyElement.focus();
   });    
});

Answer 1

Its working… Check this.. jsfiddle.net/KkXwT/21

In FireFox there is no highlight that makes you feel it as focused.
I have made something for you to realize that its focused.
