Window focus()

Examples

Open a new window and set focus to it:

const myWindow = window.open("", "", "width=200, height=100"); myWindow.focus();

Open a new window and blur it:

const myWindow = window.open("", "", "width=200, height=100");
myWindow.blur();

The focus() method sets focus to a window.

The blur() method removes focus from a window.

The focus() method makes a request to bring a window to the front.

It may not work as you expect, due to different user settings.
