Focus not being set on textbox.

[Robert]

I am trying to set focus on a radtextbox using the following function called on the ClientEvents-OnBlur event:
The problem is that when I remove the text and tab away, focus is not set. If I continue tabbing back to that field the onblur event fires again but it does set focus.  Why is this failing on my first onBlur event being fired and successful on the second onBlur event firing?


  function ValidateTitle(oTitle, args) {
    if (oTitle.get_value()=='') {
     oTitle.focus();
      }
  }  

<telerik:RadTextBox
 ID="txtTitle"
 runat="server"
 Rows="3"
 TextMode="MultiLine"
 Width="362px"
 MaxLength="4000"
 ToolTip="Title"
 CausesValidation="True"
 ClientEvents-OnBlur="ValidateTitle">
</telerik:RadTextBox>

Hi Robert,

Do you have something focusable after the RadTextBox? If not, then after tabbing out of it, the cursor goes to the address bar and cannot be returned back to the control, e.g. in IE.

If this is your scenario, add some hyperlink or textbox after the RadTextBox and move it out of sight with CSS styles.

If the above information is not applicable, send us a runnable page, as I can't reproduce the problem on a simple page.
