Can't be done with php.

It can, however, be done with javascript.

thats such a shame as its a really nice simple little effect.

could i embed the javascript within the php?

do you have such a script? :-)

Hi,
This is the example code. you try it.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> New Document </TITLE>
<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="EditPlus">
<META NAME="Author" CONTENT="">
<META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="">
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="">
<script>
		function setFocus()
		{
				document.frmtest.title.focus();
		}
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY onLoad="setFocus()";>
<form name="frmtest">
<?
	echo "<input type=\"text\" name =\"title\" size=\"5\" maxlength=\"6\">";
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
