Dave -
Try this:
<script language="JavaScript">
window.onload = function() {
document.myform.yardage_ticket_no.focus()
};
</script>
I can't swear to this for "built-in" functions like focus(), but if I
were calling a custom function, I would need to leave the parentheses
off of your original statement.
window.onload = mycustomfunction(); // would not work
window.onload = mycustomfunction; // would work
Maybe focus() operates the same way?
