I have a<dyn> region which at some points in time has a<ctextbox>. What I would like is when some code creates the textbox, I would also like it to grab focus. Now, I know I can do this with the FFI, but it would be nice if there was a principled way to do this from Ur/Web. One may might be to augment the indexes of the tag constructor; another way might be to add a new meta-attribute which takes some sort of source and detects when false->true transitions occur. One thing to think about is what to do when multiple things show up and want focus; it's not a very modular way of acting.
What about a pseudo-attribute (of type [bool] or [unit]) for focus-able elements, asking to give them focus upon creation? Maybe this is your first suggestion above.
What would be a usual way of implementing this in HTML/JavaScript? _______________________________________________ Ur mailing list [email protected] http://www.impredicative.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ur
