Hi Mike:

you want javascript.

i'd recommend using jquery (jquery.com)

    I'll look into this.  Thanks.

put an id="username" on the username box.

then do

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
   $("#username").focus();
});
</script>

voila

    Hmmm.  It didn't work for me.  Do I need to change any of the code you
provided or should it work as you wrote it?

It only works if you have included the jquery javascript files.

If you don't want to use that you could do something like:

<script defer>
  document.getElementById('username').focus();
</script>
