Hi Barbara,
Nothing to do with cocoon, but you are right; the document is not fully
loaded and that's the problem. Try wrapping your code in a function and
call it via the onload attribute of the body tag.
BTW, you should be using DOM nowdays:
<script language="javascript">
function init()
{
document.getElementById('my_text').focus();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init()">
Manos
