To call the .focus() method on a button click in Vue.js, you can use a combination of template references (ref) and Vue’s event handling. Here’s how you can do it:
<template>
<div>
<!-- Button with a reference -->
<button ref="myButton" @click="focusButton">Click me to focus</button>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
methods: {
focusButton() {
// Call .focus() on the button element using the template reference
this.$refs.myButton.focus();
}
}
};
</script>
In this example, the button has a ref attribute (ref="myButton"), which allows us to reference the button element in the component’s JavaScript code.
When the button is clicked (@click="focusButton"), the focusButton method is called.
Inside the focusButton method, we access the button element using this.$refs.myButton and call the .focus() method on it to give it focus.
This way, when the button is clicked, it will receive focus programmatically.
