Using <p:inputText> to open/close a dialog.

[teccc]

Hi!

I wanted to create a <p:inputText> element that opens a dialog on-focus and closes it on-blur.

I tried this:

Code: Select all

<p:inputText id="inputText"
                      required="true"
                      requiredMessage="message"
                      onfocus="dlg.show();"
                      onblur="dlg.hide();"
                      value="#{backingBean.value}" />

This does not work. If I use only one of the events everything works fine but I hoped I could use both events at the same time.

Can anyone tell me how to open and close a dialog from an inputText on focus and blur?
