Hi, just curious to know if there is a way to set the focus in a form field OTHER than using the document.formname.fieldname.focus(); method in the body tag as an onload event?
Thanks.
 
Sure, but it in effect does the same thing, and will not stack with a body onload element.
Code:
<script language=javascript>
window.onload=document.formname.fieldname.focus();
</script>
