You can also use the tab index property to control where the cursor goes if the person presses tab. It could be annoying if your sign-up and login were on the same page and the cursor jumps from one to the other.

1 is highest priority then 2 and so on. 0 will only be cycled through after the others have been.

Note that this doesn't replace document.getElementByld() ... but it helps for the after ward.

If you look at the register and login templates, you'll notice that they *
both* have the code already implemented on them.
If you are having trouble understanding how document.getElementById() works,
you may want to learn a little bit more javascript before attempting to add
it to your projects.

It`s kinda confusing. You should put an example on the register.php or login.php

I've written a form autofocus script that does this in a way that handles some of the problems that come up with the topic, and generally automatically figures out what field to focus on. Thought you might want to know. :)
