Jump to particular input field

[Former Community Member]

Hi, I created a PDF which has a validation method just after the printbutton is pressed. That's all implemented, but now comes the hard part: What I would like is that when the validation returns errors, the PDF jumps to the first input field that produces the error. Is this at all possible to let the PDF jump to another page or input field? If so, could you please push me into the right direction? Thanks in advance!

You would need to code the command:



xfa.host.setFocus("FieldName");



When this executes your cursor will move to the named field.
