Twitter bootstrap - Focus on textarea inside a modal on click

Question

Just starting to play around with bootstrap and it\'s amazing.

I\'m trying to figure this out. I have a textarea for feedback inside a modal window. It works great.

Answer 1

I wanted to have a declarative version of this, so I went with the following :

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(".modal").on('shown.bs.modal', function () {
        $("[data-modalfocus]", this).focus();
    });
});

You can then simply add a data-modalfocus property to your field, like so :

<input type="text" data-modalfocus />

And when the modal pops-up, your field will get focus.
