  Anyway to set focus to my textbox?

  Sep 16, 2012 08:34 PM|LINK

  Hi ASP.NET Members,

  I spent for two days but I can't solve my small problem here :(.

  I have a TextBox (to get keyword for searching) with AutoComplete Extender inside an Panel. I want to keep user focus to this textbox always from time to time of searching, at startup and after postback.

  Some ways tried but not work for IE, Chrom... (Firefox do great job):

  - ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page).SetFocus....

  - ToolkitScriptManager1.SetFocus(...

  - RegisterClientScript...

  - TextBox.SetFocus()

  I hope you will help me, thanks!

  RegisterStartupScript() sounds reasonable. Of course, it depends what you do with it. Try registering a $get on the textbox and use focus().
