Focus On RadDatePicker in Javascript

[Sanjeev]

Hi, I want to set focus on RadDateControl(either in text or popup button) after validating Client side.
I have tried many examples after googling/forum.

e.g. From http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/calendar/raddatepicker-focus.aspx

var DatePicker5 = $find("<%= RadDatePicker5.ClientID %>");

DatePicker4.get_dateInput().focus();      But all such lines/codes are obsolete. I do not want to add any default date for select method(for focus purpose)

.

Hi,

You can set focus in DatePicker using the following method.
aspx:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="RadDatePicker5" runat="server"></telerik:RadDatePicker>

JS:

function pageLoad() {
       var DatePicker5 = $find("<%= RadDatePicker5.ClientID %>");
       DatePicker5.get_dateInput().focus();
   }

Thanks,
Shinu

Hi Shinu,
Thanks for reply. I have already tried and is not working. It may be fine for older version of telerik controls.Also I want to say I do not want it on pageLoad event but in my 'Validate()' method.
