I'm trying to create a post creator like Facebook when you press on the text area it pops up another form with another Textarea I have already done that but the problem here that I can not set focus on the textarea in the new modal that pops up when I click on old textarea here is an image for a better explanation
<textarea class="form-control" placeholder="Write a post..." rows="3" v-model="post.Content" :class="{ 'is-invalid': post.errors.has('Content') }" @click="postModal();setTextFocus()" @click.right="postModal();setTextFocus()"></textarea>
<div class="modal-body"><!-- component modal -->
<textarea class="form-control" v-bind:placeholder="'What is on your a mind, '+name+'?'" rows="3" v-model="post.Content" :class="{ 'is-invalid': post.errors.has('Content') }" id="focusText" ref="textFocus"></textarea>
<has-error :form="post" field="Content"></has-error>
</div>
methods:{
postModal(){
$('#postModal').modal('show');
$("#myModal").on('shown.bs.modal', function(){
$('#postModal').find('#focusText').focus();
});
},
setTextFocus()
{
this.$refs.textFocus.focus();
},
You can focus on the textarea in the
mounted
lifecycle hook and after the$vm.nextTick()
promise has been resolved, so that you're sure the element is indeed present in the DOM:
