cool, just for completeness though:
when upgrading from woody to cforms (which is highly recommended) you should:
watch out with those on_load thingies, you might be killing the necessary onload of other widgets in the form (e.g. used by advanced widgets like calendar or html area and whatnot)
the way to add your own code to the 'onload' event is therefor a bit different when you use the provided xsl's from samples/resources
forms_onloadHandlers[forms_onloadHandlers.length] = document.login.id.focus; // not tested, so might have some syntax issues
see the forms_onloadHandlers Array declared and used in form_lib.js http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/cocoon/trunk/src/blocks/forms/samples/resources/forms-lib.js?rev=36594&root=Apache-SVN&view=auto

of document)
Hello Robby!
You could try some <fi:styling myAttr="doSomething()"> element in the form template, since all attributes to that element is copied into the resulting input tag in the standard cforms field transformer:
... <xsl:if test="fi:styling"> <xsl:copy-of select="fi:styling/@*"/> </xsl:if> ...
Another option would be to include a simple javascript in the template that does the focusing job.
