This is clientside, not asp. However
Do not try the often used <body onload="document.myform.txt1.focus()">
If the (slow connection) user has started filling forms before a full page
load, the focus will suddenly go back to the start when loading is finished,
in the middle of typing.
Immediately after the <input> in question, you can place a client-side
script block setting the focus.
Be aware that some browsers and doctypes do not handle randomly placed
script blocks very well. You might use asp to offer this little luxury only
to platforms that you know are OK with it.
