I'm attempting to use http://www.plus2net.com/html_tutorial/set-focus.php to set the focus to a search box for the user.
However, I'm having problems because I can't pass the formname from the controller to the view. I can set it on the controller side but it does not show up on the view side. In this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/9a8195752b18b0f/2d394e020dc059af?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=formname#2d394e020dc059af it seemed like there was a similar problem. controller fragment return dict(form=FORM('business: ',INPUT(formname='widget', name='testit', _name='f1',_id='keyword', _onkeyup="ajax('bg_find',['keyword'],'target');")), target_div=DIV(_id='target')) view source on the page: <form action="" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">business: <input id="keyword" name="f1" onkeyup="ajax('bg_find', ['keyword'],'target');" /></form> I notice that "formname" and "name" don't get passed. For the javascript to work, it needs to have something like this: <form name=f1 action='' method=post><input type=text name=userid></ form> Is there a way to do this that I'm missing? Or does somebody have a better way to set focus?
