Autofocus on input field when div slides down

Question

I have is a hidden div. When the button is clicked, the div slides down with an input field. How do I make this input field autofocus as soon as the div slides down? Thanks.

Answer 1

hidden field cannot gain focus ..so what you need to do is on click of button you have to show them .

$("#status_comments_"+a).show().slideDown();
    $("#comment_field").show().focus();
