auto tab into first input cell??

[Terrytrysphp]

Morning after setting up my first user respond form with help from “dotBoB” and getting it to work correctly for my needs. I noticed that when the form first opens, the cursor does not auto tab into the first input cell. Which means the user has to move the mouse pointer in the first field and click before they can input the data is there a simple code to do this??

Its done using javascript, not php.

in the head of your document add this:
<script language=javascript>
<!--
function formfocus(){document.formname.formfieldname.focus();}
// -->
</script>

Add the following to your body tag:

onLoad=formfocus()

In the function definition, replace "formname" with the name of your form and "formfieldname" with the name of the field you want the cursor to appear in.

Thanks siwis

I knew it would be simple but had'nt thought of using JavaSript.
I will try your code this evening

Thanks TerryTrysPhP
