won't focus and have error...

Can anyone see why this page is giving me an error and not focusing? By the way, I am a newbie

Code:

<HTML>
	<HEAD>
	<script language="JavaScript">
		function setFocus()
		{
		Document.Form1.txtUserName.focus();
		}
	</script>
		<title>Login</title>				
		<meta content="Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 7.1" name="GENERATOR">
		<meta content="Visual Basic .NET 7.1" name="CODE_LANGUAGE">
		<meta content="JavaScript" name="vs_defaultClientScript">
		<meta content="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5" name="vs_targetSchema">		
	</HEAD>	
	<body onload="setFocus();">
....................

I think this is giving me the error: <body onload="setFocus();">

I figured it out.

Form1.txtUserName.focus();

instead of:

Document.Form1.txtUserName.focus();

hmm .. does document work if you make the D lowercase?

i.e.: document.Form1.txtUserName.focus();

thanks for posting the fix.

Yep, lowercase "d" works too. Cool!

I have another question too, if you have time:datalist disappears...why?
