javascript - focus is not working on textarea - Stack Overflow|江阴雨辰互联

I am creating a page in which a user can add a question and its solution, he can delete the problem and can also edit it dynamically using DOM in javascript. I want that whenever user clicks on edit button the textbox which appears get autofocus.

This the javascript code of my page...

var questionText;
var answerText;
var questionArray=[];
var answerArray=[];
var i=0;
var j=10000;

function addProblem(){
    var body = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
    questionText = document.getElementById('questionId').value;
    answerText = document.getElementById('answerId').value;

    questionArray.unshift(questionText);
    answerArray.unshift(answerText);

    var myContainer = document.getElementById('container');
    var myDiv = document.createElement("div");
    var questionLogo = document.createElement("p");
    questionLogo.id = "questionLogo";
    var textNode = document.createTextNode("Question:");
    var question = document.createElement("p");
    question.id = "question";
    var questionDetail = document.createTextNode(questionArray[0]);

    var deleteButton = document.createElement("button");
    deleteButton.innerHTML = "Delete";
    deleteButton.id = i;
    var editButton = document.createElement("button");
    editButton.innerHTML = "Edit";
    editButton.id = j;

    var answerLogo = document.createElement("p");
    answerLogo.id = "answerLogo"
    var ansTextNode = document.createTextNode("Answer: ");
    var answer = document.createElement("p");
    answer.id = "answer";
    var answerDetail = document.createTextNode(answerArray[0]);
    var mybr = document.createElement("br");

    if(i==0){
        myContainer.appendChild(myDiv);
        myDiv.appendChild(questionLogo);
        questionLogo.appendChild(textNode);
        questionLogo.appendChild(question);
        question.appendChild(questionDetail);
        myDiv.appendChild(answerLogo);
        answerLogo.appendChild(ansTextNode);
        answerLogo.appendChild(answer);
        answer.appendChild(answerDetail);
        answerLogo.appendChild(mybr);
        myDiv.appendChild(deleteButton);
        myDiv.innerHTML += ' ';
        myDiv.appendChild(editButton);
    }
    else if (i > 0)
    {
        myContainer.insertBefore(myDiv,myContainer.firstChild);
        myDiv.appendChild(questionLogo);
        questionLogo.appendChild(textNode);
        questionLogo.appendChild(question);
        question.appendChild(questionDetail);
        myDiv.appendChild(answerLogo);
        answerLogo.appendChild(ansTextNode);
        answerLogo.appendChild(answer);
        answer.appendChild(answerDetail);
        answer.appendChild(mybr);
        myDiv.appendChild(deleteButton);
        myDiv.innerHTML += ' ';
        myDiv.appendChild(editButton);
    }

    i++;
    j++;

    myDiv.childNodes[7].addEventListener("click", function(){
        var deleteElement = document.getElementById(this.id);
        deleteElement.parentNode.parentNode.removeChild(deleteElement.parentNode);
    });

    myDiv.childNodes[9].addEventListener("click",function(){
         var editElement = document.getElementById(this.id);
         var quesEdit = editElement.parentNode.childNodes[1];
         var quesEditText = quesEdit.innerHTML;

         var ansEdit = editElement.parentNode.childNodes[4];
         var ansEditText = ansEdit.innerHTML;

         var editDiv1 = document.createElement("div");
         editDiv1.id = "editDiv1"
         var quesTextArea = document.createElement("textarea");
         quesTextArea.innerHTML += quesEditText;
         quesTextArea.focus();
         var saveButton1 = document.createElement("button");
         saveButton1.innerHTML = "Save";
         editDiv1.appendChild(quesTextArea);
         editDiv1.innerHTML += ' ';
         editDiv1.appendChild(saveButton1);
         quesEdit.parentNode.replaceChild(editDiv1,quesEdit);

         var editDiv2 = document.createElement("div");
         editDiv2.id = "editDiv2"
         var ansTextArea = document.createElement("textarea");
         ansTextArea.innerHTML += ansEditText;
         var saveButton2 = document.createElement("button");
         saveButton2.innerHTML = "Save";
         editDiv2.appendChild(ansTextArea);
         editDiv2.innerHTML += ' ';
         editDiv2.appendChild(saveButton2);
         ansEdit.parentNode.replaceChild(editDiv2,ansEdit);
    });
}

try this document.getElementById(answer).focus(); – Edison Augusthy Commented Feb 21, 2017 at 8:04
@Edison textarea has been created dynamically when edit button is clicked, and you are talking about the initial textarea when question is adding not when editing. – Isha Goyal Commented Feb 21, 2017 at 8:11

For the element could be got focused, it must be in the DOM when you invoke focus on it. You should invoke focus function after replaceChild function

 editDiv1.appendChild(quesTextArea);
 editDiv1.appendChild(saveButton1);
 quesEdit.parentNode.replaceChild(editDiv1,quesEdit);
 quesTextArea.focus();

I've created a simple sample as below link, you could check it
https://jsfiddle/pd9c6c7a/3/

Add autofocus attribute to the textarea element. So that whenever it is appended to the DOM, will get cursor activated in it.

The 'textarea' has not been added to window to be shown, an element must be part of the document object tree. In case that didn't work, add a 50ms delay.

setTimeout(function(){e.focus();}, 50);

Try the following approach:

var body=document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
var quesTextArea=document.createElement("textarea");
var button=document.createElement("button");
button.innerHTML = "click Me";
button.addEventListener("click",function(e){
  e.preventDefault();
  quesTextArea.focus();
});
body.appendChild(quesTextArea);
body.appendChild(button);

<html>
<body>
<body>
</html>

Try to add preventDefault.

var div = document.getElementById('parent');
var txt = document.createElement('textarea');
div.appendChild(txt);
txt.focus();

<html>

<head></head>

<body>
  <div id="parent">
    <input type="text" value="" />
  </div>
</body>

</html>

The element must be in the DOM when you invoke the focus function. Move your focus() function after the appendChild() is invoked.

 quesTextArea.innerHTML += quesEditText;
 var saveButton1=document.createElement("button");
 saveButton1.innerHTML="Save";
 editDiv1.appendChild(quesTextArea);
 quesTextArea.focus();
