How to focus on an input field when the page is loaded
8 comments. Current rating: 
(4 votes). Leave comments and/ or rate it.
The object model provides a .focus() method.
Simply reference the field and call its focus method in the onload event as shown below:
 |  | |
<body onload="document.getElementById('searchterm').focus();"> // .. here's the FORM. Make sure to define the ID tag, // not just the name tag. <textarea id="searchterm"> | ||

IS there a way to do this without Javascript? IE will not allow this in an HTML page run from hard disk...
