Here is a little more background, which I probably should have included: The firstfocus() function is called from the JSP's BODY ONLOAD event. I'm using Communicator 4.77 and IE 5. It does not work with either one. There is no error message, either. The form appears properly, except that focus is not set as I would like.
Thanks!

I tryed it in differents way, and they all worked in IE 6 and mozilla 0.9.8 Not in Netscape 4.78 anyway, without any error. Watch my code : <form action="#" name="frmEmployee"> <input type="text" name="txtName" value="tata"> <a href="#" onMouseOver="FirstFocus()">focus</a> <!-- work --> </form> <Script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript"> setTimeout("document.frmEmployee.txtName.select()",200) //work document.frmEmployee.txtName.select(); //work function FirstFocus() { document.frmEmployee.txtName.select(); } document.onLoad=FirstFocus() //work </script> =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
