Hi,
How do I set the insertion point in an HTML text field? I am using the form_open function and all of the examples I see on the Web require the use of the form name and a little Javascript.

with jquery:
Code:
// for the first textfield on the doc
$(document).ready(function(){
$('textarea:first').focus();
});Code:
// select textfield by id
$(document).ready(function(){
$('textarea#id_name:first').focus();
});Setfocus on textfield - El Forum - 04-17-2010
