jQuery Quick Tip #1 – Adding a class on focus
Monday, June 1st, 2009I’ve been learning and messing around more with jQuery recently, so i thought it would be a good chance to share some of the stuff i’m learning.
The Problem
I needed to add a focus class to my form input when i clicked the mouse in the input box. I then needed to remove that class and add it to the next input in the form. Well here’s how i did it!
The Solution
$(function() {
$(”input[type=text]“).focus(function() {
$(this).addClass(’focus_class’);
return false;
});
});
$(function() {
$(”input[type=text]“).blur(function() {
$(this).removeClass(’focus_class’);
return false;
});
});
