Setting Focus On Textbox Upon Form Loads

Hi,

May I know how do i go about setting focus on a particular text box upon the loading of the form? I.E. Page Load Event... Is this possible in ASP.Net too? Or only in VB Windows Form only...

Thanks for your help.

I your page_load you call the sub SetFocusControl fe. SetFocusControl(Page, Me.UserName.ID.ToString)

and of course the sub :

Public Sub SetFocusControl(ByRef Pagina As System.Web.UI.Page, ByVal ControlName As String)
' character 34 = "

Dim script As String = _
"<script language=" + Chr(34) + "javascript" + Chr(34) _
+ ">" + _
" var control = document.getElementById(" + Chr(34) + _
ControlName + Chr(34) + ");" & _
" if( control != null ){control.select();}" & _
"</script>"


Pagina.RegisterStartupScript("Focus", script)

End Sub


This works fine for me, except when I push the Tab he jumps to the address bar :cry: So if you find the reason, let me know !
