Hi,

I have a window with a form text field that focuses the cursor in the field onLoad.

My dilemma however is when this window opens a popup and the user then closes the popup or simply clicks back on the first window the cursor is no loger focused in the field.

Is there any way I can tell the page to set focus to that field everytime the window is in focus?

Thank you kindly
Autumnnn

if you wanted that you could never change the focus off that field to something like a button to click or something. i don't know how to do it but you could try something like this.

<body onLoad="document.form.input.blah.focus()" onFocus="document.form.input.blah.focus()">

In the popup

<script>
function refocus(){
opener.document.formname.imputname.focus()
}
</script>


ADD onunload="refocus()" to the opening BODY tag
