Need help setting Views exposed filter input focus
As the subject implies, I desire for usability purposes to set the focus to the first input of an exposed input field. I've searched and can only find mention of something like this:
<?php
drupal_add_js("$('#edit-name').focus();", 'inline');
?>But there no mention of where to put it or how to use it, or if '#edit-name' is the ID of the input text box or the name of it.
I've tried putting the above in a custom module, in the page.tpl and others.
Obviously, I have tried several iterations and locations, but cannot find the key to open this lock.
Any help appreciated!
Forms Validation Help
I could use some coder help.
I have a page manager panel that displays a view with exposed filters for Location/Proximity and displays results of stores, along with a gmap for all resulting locations.
This works like a champ. The problem is I need to validate the results to make sure a zip code is entered, otherwise the result set is every store and the map takes a lot of time and resources to render.
I am trying to validate on the submit button, but it appears that the submit button is validated even before it is clicked.

I hope there is a simple answer to my question...
How do I set a file attachment to open target="_blank" instead of "_self"?
I have a file attachment on an article content type, but I see no way of allowing that to open up on a separate page.
Thank you,

Drupal, theming, templating, and some flash
Hi all,
I have a question that, without a doubt will make some of question my sanity, primarily since I am dealing with Flash. Ok, breathe...
I am tasked with adding a responsive site for tables and mobiles and an international (i18n) management platform to our web sites lineup. Currently, our main consumer site is built in Flash and and utilizes a custom CMS that everyone is familiar with (marketing ppl).
Read moreTemecula Area DUG?
I have been trying to get some local folks to meet up in the Temecula/Murrieta area and found that there are very few of us around this area.
Not knowing the level of expertise, availability, or meeting frequency that possible attendees would enjoy, I thought I would just show up someplace and extend an invitation to anyone interested.
I plan on going to the Temecula Public Library every Tuesday evening from 6-8pm in the Grace Mellman Heritage Room, or one of the private rooms if it is booked, starting tomorrow, 5/22/2012 and or a month or so to see how it goes.

Drupal Commerce
I just learned about using the Commerce Kickstart module/core install (commerce_kickstart). Instead of using core to begin a site that's going to use Commerce, you can use the module's tar/zip file that has core AND many of the needed contrib modules inside to begin creating a Commerce site, and everything comes out from the initial install. You have a working Commerce site ready for customization right "out of the box"! One day I'll "settle" down and just build sites, but for now I'm having so much fun exploring...

Suggestions to make Views Menu Tab content URL human readable
Using PathAuto and when displaying a node, the url is human friendly as in:
example.com/article/article-title
Now when I add a view as a menu tab to the node, the view path must be in the form:
node/%/premium-content
Where % is the contextual filter of "Content: Nid" in order for the menu tab to display next to the "View" menu tab for the node.
The trouble I have is that because the view path must be in this particular form, the url of the content when the "Premium Content" menu tab is clicked looks like this:
example.com/node/xxxx/premium-content

Hey guys, thought we should probably get a thread on LA / Cali Drupal Business Summits started to get a feel of what we should do to promote Drupal in a community effort in the Southwest. We (KWALL) have been discussing business summits with many of the community at camps / meetups / etc. and would love to volunteer to get this going and ensure that it's a great event to promote Drupal to interested parties, and not just a sales tool.
Read moreBackslashes inserted into html code
I am suddenly having problems with editors. I had wysiwyg editor installed. Used CKEditor and TinyMce and disabled both trying to get to root of prob. Used all filters on code. Full HTML, Filtered HTML and even display suite code. Tried all variations of above and even straight text.
But since this morning any piece of code I touch in a block adds a backslash in front of a single or double quote.
