When I create a form with radio buttons as the first element, for some reason a dotted square box appears around the first radio button. How can I get rid of this?
Thanks!

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

onload = focus;

</script>

Thanks - it works! But I don't know why! Can you explain?

Looks to me as if it sets focus() to the page instead of a form element, onLoad... :)

If I had written the equivalent:

<body onload="window.focus()">

...you would have gotten it. ;) In script, onload=focus means window.onload = function() {window.focus();}
