LeaveField Method

The LeaveField method determines whether or not Siebel Open UI has removed the focus from a field in an applet. It returns one of the following values:

• true. Siebel Open UI has removed the focus from a field. This situation typically occurs when the user navigates away from the field. To do this navigation, the user clicks another object in the applet or navigates away from the applet.

• false. Siebel Open UI has not removed the focus from a field.

It uses the following syntax:

LeaveField(control,value,do_not_leave); 

where:

• control identifies the control that LeaveField examines.

• value contains the value that Siebel Open UI sets in the proxy for the control.

• do_not_leave is set to one of the following values:

  • true. Keep the focus on the control.

  • false. Do not keep the focus on the control.
