I use this script to put the cursor into the First Form Window...
I suspect you can modify it to suit your needs.
<!--- USED TO PLACE FOCUS INTO FIRST FORM WINDOW --->
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
function firstFocus() {
if (document.forms.length > 0) {
for (j=0;j<document.forms.length;j++) {
var TForm = document.forms[j];
for (i=0;i<TForm.length;i++) {
if ((TForm.elements[i].type=='text')||
(TForm.elements[i].type=='textarea')||
(TForm.elements[i].type=='password')||
(TForm.elements[i].type.toString().charAt(0)=='s')) {
if (!(TForm.elements[i].readonly)&&
!(TForm.elements[i].disabled)) {
document.forms[j].elements[i].focus();
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
-->
</script>
</head>
<body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" onLoad="firstFocus();">
