Problem With Change of Focus

I have a form on which I change background colors when textbox get focus and
I reset the background color when it loses focus. This works fine except
when I change the focus via code. If I validate the contents of several
textbox values from a subroutine and find txtBox3 has invalid contents I
display an error msg and then issue txtBox3.Focus and exit the sub the
cursor is in txtBox3 but the background color of the last textbox into which
I entered text is still set to the color used to show focus and txtBox3
background is not set.

It is as if the GotFocus and LostFocus events do not fire?

Has anyone else seen this? Any workarounds?

I thought this would be really simple, but i'm stumped. I'd like to validate some data without submitting the form, but i can't seem to get the focus to go back to the field with the bad data. I've stripped out most of the code just to illustrate the problem. In both IE and Mozilla, the focus still goes to the next element. This is .php generated. <html><body><script type="text/javascript"> var numAdults=5; var numChildren=0; function...

First, greetings to everyone :) I'm doing a university seminar & I've encountered a problem. I have a gallery with thumbnails linked on pictures. What I want is popup to be opened with dimensions of linked picture after clicking on a thumbnail. I found javascript which is compatible with IE, Firefox & Opera but I can't get it to work.

I have web page that contains two links. link "a" and link "b". When I click on "a" a small window should pop up. when I click on "b" another small window should pop up. So what you should see now is the base window which contains links "a" and "b" and two small pop-up windows "a" and "b". Now I can make the script to pop up "a" and "b" but the problem is that they're not shown at the same time. Any suggestions????

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
