Activate a Field for editing

[JavaToPerlNowVB]

I have a form, which I have created using xml, and i use some vbscripting to handle some action in that form. I want to write a small code to activate a field to an editable mode when the user click a button. I dont VBScripting syntax that well.

thanks

vbs and js the same:
[tt] objelementreference.focus()[/tt]
Your problem is to get the reference properly.

thanks, this means that it takes boolean value where i can do
objelementreference.focus(true);
or is there a function in vbs something like
field.setEditable(true);
I am so used to java so, sorry if i ask none related question.

In dhtml, focus() takes no argument. There isn't neither setEditable method. (Those are java syntax.) Instead, if you have reason to concern editability, you may look at readonly attribute and toggle it to false as needed.
