Might sound a bit lazy of me but......
Noticed when you select the "sign in" button from home page, the cursor jumps out and you then have to click back in to continue typing. Any chance this "sign in" button could link straight into the "username" blank section to save the fiddling around?
Cheers,

I'm not too sure what you mean.. But you're wanting it to be in the 'username' field by default?

If so.. obviously the "User name" would dissapear.. because it's meant to go blank..

Quote:

onfocus="if (this.value == 'User Name') this.value = '';"

Erm.. so that would kinda go and people might get a little more confused..

But it would be possible to jump to it by just pressing tab i guess but.. noone would think to do that..

Lol. I can code pretty much anything in javascript. If you need anything just ask.

I think he means

Username.focus();

Yeah Bolter, but.. TBH then the "User name" in the box would dissapear.. and people would still click on the box anyway.. well i would.

Thanks for responses.
When you click to log-in, can it not highlight the box where it says "username" and as soon as you start typing it over-writes in the box?
I read the update in an email. I'll try to get in the habit of using tab - I forgot when I logged on just now. Is it the 1st tab to or is it like loads in? I'll log off and back in again to see for me-sen...

Tab works fine - nice one!
In future I'll stay clear of programming related suggestions, and stick to thumping keys and trying to keep my car on the road.
