Jeff,

Thanks so much for this.  Is there any way that I can set it up so I don't
need to click - in to the page.  So I could just hit refresh and then enter
and the form is submitted?

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Form Control focus and Default Button

I've got it working, just made a few changes to your code:
    * I got a handle on the focus manager before setting focus
    * defaultButton as attribute of Form, not panel.

Otherwise, all is well.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml";
     creationComplete="checkLoginFormForSelection();">

     <mx:Script><![CDATA[

         private function checkLoginFormForSelection() : Void{
                 var fm = getFocusManager();
             if (email.length == 0) {
                 fm.setFocus(email);
                 Selection.setSelection(1,1)
                 return;
             }
             if (password.length == 0) {
                 fm.setFocus(password);
                 Selection.setSelection(1,1)
                 return;
             }
         }
      ]]></mx:Script>

     <mx:Panel title="Login Form Focus" >
         <mx:Form defaultButton="login">
             <mx:FormItem label="Email">
                 <mx:TextInput id="email" text="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"/>
             </mx:FormItem>
             <mx:FormItem label="Password">
                 <mx:TextInput id="password" text=""/>
             </mx:FormItem>
         </mx:Form>
         <mx:Button click="mx.controls.Alert.show('You just logged in');" 
label="Login" id="login"/>
     </mx:Panel>
</mx:Application>
