The focus on selecting a date using datepicker is not going back to the textbox where it is being displayed(ie. selected date), if this is done then we can trigger a search etc on enter key press. I experianced this in IE7, Os: Windows XP

summary: Focus after selecting using datepicker → Datepicker: Focus not placed back into textbox after date selection

The OP mentioned individual browsers but the behavior is consistent across browsers - http://jsfiddle.net/tj_vantoll/tRdpr/.

sorry, look at this one:

https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/pull/879

The previous one had a problem if the next input element is not in the same parent.

So now it is just focus back in the input the generated the datepicker.

All of the fixes I have seen for this bug reset the focus to the datepicker in onSelect:. This has worked for me as well. Now in IE 11 it backfires and when the focus is reset to the datepicker it shows the calendar and can be nearly impossible to close. The work around that seems to work now for me is to move the focus to the next element in the data entry form in onClose: of the datepicker. That at least maintains tab order in the form.
