Angular 2/4 set focus on input element

Question

How can I set focus on an input by (click) event? I have this function in place but I\'m clearly missing something (angular newbie here)

sTbState: string = \         


        

Answer 1

try this :

in you HTML file:

Focus


 

in your ts File :

sTbState: string = 'invisible';

toggleSt(e, el) {
  this.sTbState = (this.sTbState === 'invisible' ? 'visible' : 'invisible');
  if (this.sTbState === 'visible') {
    el.focus();
  }
}
