How to set Focus on a "RadTextBox" after listbox.get_selectedItem().set_selected(false)

[Jita]

I have a pannel control, where I want a specific textbox to be selected after the listbox.get_selectedItem(). but in the javascript side if I put #RadTextboxID.focus() it never comes down there and the RadTB is not selected.

MY code in the JS side

function AddNewTask() {
    $('.emptyTaskList').hide();  
    var listbox = $find('rlbTasks');
    $('#lblEditTaskSign').html('Add Task/Milestone');
    $('#lbDeleteTask').hide();
    listbox.get_selectedItem().set_selected(false);
  $( "#rtbName" ).focus();

 

And the page does not post back so setting it in the page_load did not help. 

 

I also tried :

 <telerik:RadTextBox ClientEvents-OnLoad="onClientLoad" runat="server" ID="rtbName" MaxLength="255" />                                                    

function onClientLoad(sender) // executes when loading the RadTextBox 
{
    sender.focus();
}

 

Did not work? how should I approach this issue?

Hi Jita,

Try the following approach:

function buttonClick() {
    var textBox = $find('<%= rtbName.ClientID %>');
    textBox.focus();
}
