Input field validation(pointing to the next field)

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can any one tell me a solution for this,

I have 10 input fields and one save button in my view. If user enters values in

4 inputfields and press save button then system shoud point to the 5th field without considering the mandatory fields.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

To set focus you can use the following code

IWDInputField inputField = (IWDInputField) view.getElement("<Your UI Element>");

inputField.requestFocus();

Hi Shareena,

Use Message editor & Message format for this. its better if u make the field as required instead of checking values one by one.

Check this for the steps

it will automatically take the focus to field.

Hi,

Create an "error" Message in MessagePool with Key.. Key1

and use this code ti focus

Object attValue=wdContext.currentContextElement().getAttributeValue(IPrivate<ViewName>.IContextElement.<Field5>);

IWDAttributeInfo attInfo=wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivate<ViewName>.IContextElement.<Field5>);

if (attValue==null)

{

objMessageManager.reportContextAttributeMessage(wdContext.currentContextElement(),attInfo,IMessage<ComponentName>.KEY1,null,true);

return;

}

Similarly you can check and focus other fields.. Just Replace <Field5> with some other <Field> and IMessage<ComponentName>.<KEY>
