oblur, onchange and onkeypress

[napsternapster]

Hi ppl,

 

I have a problem with javascript events.

I have created 2 functions with different purposes

 

//function one called onkeypress

function tabBackorFront()

{

  //this function works on checks for tab key and shift

  if(tab == 9 && shift == false)

  {

    shows the next input text or select drop down;

    sets the focus on the next input text or select drop down;

  }

  else if(tab == 9 && shift == true)

  {

    sets the focus to the previous select dropdown or input text

  }

}

 

//function two is called onblur of an input text or onchange of a select dropdown

function ShowNext()

{

  //shows the next input text or select drop down

}

 

//this events are attached as follows to input text and drop down

//input text

  <input type='text'  oblur='javascript:ShowNext()' onkeypress=' javascript:tabBackorFront() />

 

//on select dropdown onkeypress='javascript:tabBackorFront' onchange='javascript:tabBackorFront()

 

I need a way of determineing which function must be called  depending on which event dat has been envoked.

 

I thank you in advice

Look into the JS 'event' object, specifically 'event.type'.

When the onkeypress event is invoked and oblur  is invoked on the input text after the onkeypress event.Same as the onchange and onkeypress.

 

2 of these events they call the same function one after are another.

 

function selectOption(text,current,next,previous,contact_type,detailed_type,e)

{

current = document.getElementById(current);

next  = document.getElementById(next);

previous = document.getElementById(previous);

 

if((e.keyCode == 9 && e.shiftKey == true) || (e.keyCode == 9 && e.shiftKey == false) )

{

  Code  = e.keyCode;

  bool = e.shiftKey;

tabBackorFront(text,current,next,previous,contact_type,detailed_type);

 

}

else

{

ShowNext(text,current,next,previous,contact_type,detailed_type);

}

 

 

}
