Since I rerender the form using ajax, I am not sure if document.myform.myfield.focus() will work and I have not had any luck. Is there a way to focus through RJS ?
The best approach I can think of is to get rid of the form and have a field observer for each field, save the values in a session and when the user clicks the save button, I treat it as if it was a form submit. I'm not so much of a web expert on these kinds of things and I end up doing whatever I can make sense of if I can't find a decent example someplace ..
