To make your Forms more User-Friendly, you can put the Cursor in a Text-Field after loading
your Site. Its easy to with JavaScript. Put the following Snippet at the end of your HTML-Body.
(before </BODY> )
---- snipp ---
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
if (document.<FormName>) {
document.<FormName>.<ElementName>.focus();
}
// -->
</script>
---- snapp ---

Insert instead of <FormName> the Name of your Form (specified in your FORM-Tag !),
and instead of <ElementName> the Name of the Form-Element. (Maybe a Text-Field).

(:Mike:)

This is a great thing for javascript.  It`s wonderful to use 
it for these little tasks.  They really change the flow of 
the page.

One tip is to use this function in the onLoad event in 
your BODY tag.  

If you have:

&lt;form name=myForm&gt;
&lt;input type=text name=myTextBox&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;

you might want to write a function like this:

&lt;script language=javascript&gt;
&lt;!--
  function focusUser() {
    document.forms[`myForm`].elements
[`myTextBox`].focus();
  }
//--&gt;
&lt;/script&gt;

then in your body tag:

&lt;body onLoad="javascript:focusUser();"&gt;

One webpage that uses this fairly often is "GOOGLE" 
http://www.google.com.  I really like not ever having to 
touch the mouse.
