Maintaining focus on a control.

[mike55]

Hi,

 

I have the following javascript code that allows me to set the focus on a particular control as the page loads. The problem is if I click on one of the textboxes in the page, the focus switches to another control. The question is how do i maintain the focus on the original control all the time?

 

   Private Sub SetFocus(ByVal ctrl As Control)
       ' Define the JavaScript function for the specified control.
       Dim focusScript As String = "<script language='javascript'>" & _
                                                       "document.getElementById('" + ctrl.ClientID & _
                                                           "').focus();</script>"
       ' Add the JavaScript code to the page.
       Page.RegisterStartupScript("FocusScript", focusScript)
   End Sub

Found a solution, apparently the focus is set to the first button that you add to the page. Therefore had to delete the other buttons on my page and add them again.
