go to www.google.com and look at that text field. For me, the cursor is already blinking before I click is... How did they do it? I tried to figure it out, and I need to know for this chat script I'm making.


Thanks!

This is what does it::

function sf(){document.f.q.focus();}

then throw a call to that in the onload......(and obviously rename to match your own form fields

This is how they did it.
They named their form f like this <form name="f"> and they named that particular input field q like this <input name="q">

In the header they defined this function as javascript:
<script>
function sf(){document.f.q.focus();}
</script>

Then they called that function when the page loads by placeing the following in the body tag:
OnLoad=sf()

I hope that helps.
