Hi,
I have got a script that makes a <div> elemenet hover on the left hand side of the page when you scroll up and down. The only problem is that when I try to execut the following
<body OnLoad="document.form.search.focus();">
I get an error:
"Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not enabled, or of a type that does not accept the focus."
I have tried changing the name of the form and of the text box but no luck so far. Is there anything else I can try? Here is the hover script:
<style type="text/css">
#topbar{
position:absolute;
border: 0px solid black;
padding: 2px;
background-color: white;
width: 140px;
height: 150px;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">

if (window.addEventListener)
window.addEventListener("load", staticbar, false)
else if (window.attachEvent)
window.attachEvent("onload", staticbar)
else if (document.getElementById)
window.onload=staticbar
</script>
And the form is here:
<div id="topbar">
<p class="style15"><span class="text2Col"><strong>BWB DIRECTORY</strong></span><span class="style14"></span></p>
<form name="form" method="POST" action="validate.asp">
<span class="text2"><strong>search</strong></span><br>
<font face="Verdana">
<input type="text" name="search" style="font-family: Verdana" size=8 onClick="this.value=''"><font size="1">
</font>
<input type="submit" value="Go" style="font-family: Verdana"><font size="1">
</font></font>
</form>
</div>
Thanks very much
