Subject: OT: Making a form text input box "active"
I'm working on a simple form page to lookup items based on a sku number.
There's a text input and a SUBMIT button. The page is eventually going to
be used on a PC running IE in kiosk mode, and I want to eliminate the mouse.
I want the text input box to be active by default, so a user can just type a
sku number and press ENTER.
A real quick and dirty version of the page is at
http://www.cornells.com/storelink/item.cfm.
I did some quick browsing in some of my HTML references and can't find a way
to do this. I haven't done much Javascript, but maybe there's a way to
solve this problem with JS? ANy suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
John
