Set Focus for Primefaces Component in Bean with WidgetVar with RequestContex Execute

Question

Is there a way to set my component focus after an function call to an other component with Primefaces RequestContex?

i tried:

RequestContex.getCurrentIns         


        

Answer 1

If the previous answer does not work, you can create a js function, for example:

function focusField(id){
 $(id).focus();
}

Then in your bean, assuming u want set focus on field "input4" , it represents ID not Widgetvar

RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().execute("focusField('#input4');");
