How about displaying the script that you have, including the way that you're using it.

I always use the onload attribute in the body tag:

<body onload="document.form_name.field_name.focus();">

Try changing it to:

Code:

<body onload="document.forms['form_name'].elements['element_name'].focus();">

However, Opera doesn't support onload. To bypass that, add an inline JavaScript block.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
   document.forms['form_name'].elements['element_name'].focus();
</script>
