how to get focus to a gridview using asp.net?












1















In my web page, one button is there if I click on that button one gridview gets generated.I am using tab key to navigate through the web page...after clicking the button, the focus does not go to the gridview instead it goes to the footer elements....
Why I need Focus for gridview is to read out the content in it using nvda screen reader...
Question: How should I get the focus to the gridview?

You can use jQuery for it



$(':text').on("focus", function(){
//here set in localStorage id of the textbox
localStorage.setItem("focusItem", this.id);
//console.log(localStorage.getItem("focusItem"));test the focus element id
});
