To auto focus the first textbox on each pageload:
1.) Copy the function below into the base page:
private void FocusFirstTextBox(){
StringBuilder buildScript = new StringBuilder();
buildScript.Append("var boxes = document.getElementsByTagName('input');");
buildScript.Append("for(var i = 0; i < boxes.length; i++) {");
buildScript.Append("if(boxes[i].type == 'text' && boxes[i].disabled == false && boxes[i].style.display != 'none'){");
buildScript.Append("boxes[i].focus();");
buildScript.Append("break;");
buildScript.Append("}}");
this.RegisterStartupScript(Guid.NewGuid().ToString(),
"");
}
2.) Copy this function call into the base pages OnPreRender:
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e) {
base.OnPreRender (e);
this.FocusFirstTextBox();
}
