Hi all,

I try to explain my problem.

I have a <div contenteditable="true" id="my_editeur>, where I have defined a keypress “event” which allow me to add a ‘p’ when the user clicks on “enter”.

It functions well, but I would like define the cursor on this new ‘p’ element, because currently my cursor stays on the first 'p' element.

I have tried to use jquery focus function but it seems that we can’t use this function for ‘p’ elements.

Do you know how I can do to solve my problem?

Thanks very much for your help.

My code :

$('#my_editeur').keypress(function(e){
        if(e.keyCode == 13) {
            e.preventDefault();
            $(this).append('<p ><br /></p>');          
        }
    });
