You can find all this so easily with google.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&e...+focus&spell=1
half way down the page is

I added the onload in the body to show you how to set it without the buttons

Code:

<html>
    <head>
    <script language="JavaScript">
    <!--
    function setFocus(num){
      if(num == 1){
        document.myForm.myTextArea1.focus();
      }else if(num == 2){
        document.myForm.myTextArea2.focus();
      }
    }
    -->
    </script>
    </head>
    <body body onload="setFocus(2)">
    <P>
    <form name="myForm">
      <textarea name="myTextArea1" rows=2 cols=50>
      Here is the first text area.
      </textarea>
    <input type=BUTTON value="Click to Set Cursor" name="myButton1" onClick="setFocus(1)">
      <br>
      <textarea name="myTextArea2" rows=2 cols=50>
      Here is the second text area.
      </textarea>
      <input type=BUTTON value="Click to Set Cursor" name="myButton2"
             onClick="setFocus(2)">
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>
