set focus of a textbox in dojo dialog

Submitted by remeshkumar on Tue, 11/27/2007 - 08:28.

Hello everybody,
Is there a way to set the focus on a text box which is inside a dialog.
I tried
dialogWidget.show();
dojo.byId("mytextbox").focus();

and

dialogWidget.tabStart = dojo.byId("mytextbox");
dialogWidget.show();

maybe the other way round?
dojo.byId("mytextbox").focus();
dialogWidget.show();

There are a few other methods found by doing a search of this site, but the method I'm using is similar to:

dialog.show();
setTimeout("dijit.byId('widgetId').focus()",100);

where "widgetId" is the id of the widget inside the dialog you wish to have focus.

dialog.containerNode.style.overflow="auto";
dialog.tabStart = dojo.byId("mytextbox");
