How can I override (or hook) the function Liferay.Util.focusFormField in Liferay 7.0?
The method is defined in frontend-js-aui-web (portal-src\modules\apps\foundation\frontend-js\frontend-js-aui-web\src\main\resources\META-INF\resources\liferay\util.js).
The only way I could think of is to just overwrite it somewhere in a js-file, like so:
Liferay.Util.focusFormField = function(el) {
var doc = $(document);
var interacting = false;
el = Util.getDOM(el);
el = $(el);
doc.on(
'click.focusFormField',
function (event) {
interacting = true;
doc.off('click.focusFormField');
}
);
if (!interacting && Util.inBrowserView(el)) {
var form = el.closest('form');
var focusable = !el.is(':disabled') && !el.is(':hidden') && !el.parents(':disabled').length;
if (!form.length || focusable) {
el.focus(false); // modified
}
else {
var portletName = form.data('fm-namespace');
Liferay.once(
portletName + 'formReady',
function () {
el.focus(false); // modified
}
);
}
}
}
All I actually want is to disable the scrolling that happens whenever a form is submitted.
Does someone know what to do best to achieve this?
Another thing I found on the web is this: https://alloyui.com/api/files/alloy-ui_src_aui-form-validator_js_aui-form-validator.js.html#l216
But I cannot find it in liferay-7.0-source-files and no explanation how to override it.
