It's possible, when focus jumps to one of links, automatically call javaScript, which is caused by event onfocus of another link?

i've tried this, but it's not works:

onfocus="document.links(5).onfocus()"

use the focus() function to set the focus of an element. Also, it should be links[5] instead of links(5). Parenthasis mean it's a function:onfocus="document.links[5].focus()"

i need to call set of functions, that assotiated with "onfocus" event of another link. Not just put focus on it.

focus() will call create the onfocus event of the link it is applied to.

But and i need, that focus must stay put, not "jumps" to another link.

i see. After doing a little research, I found a function that should do it, handleEvent(), though I can't get it to work in firefox (maybe it doesn't support it) and I'm pretty sure it doesn't work in IE.

All I can recommend is putting whatever is in the onfocus for the first link into the onfocus for the second link.
