I have found many cases when this doesn't work. I've often gotten errors
that look like the "onLoad" handler was run before the page finished
loading. (error says form or field not found). I do NOT trust the "onLoad"
handler. In cases like this, I've put the focus statement at the end of the
document.
<html>
...
<body>
</body>
<script>
document.formname.fieldname.focus()
</script>
</html>
