Remarks

Use the DefaultFocus property to access the control on the form to display as the control with input focus when the HtmlForm control is loaded. Controls that can be selected are displayed with a visual cue indicating that they have the focus. For example, a TextBox control with focus is displayed with the insertion point positioned inside of it.

The control with focus can also be set using the Focus or SetFocus methods. These methods have precedence over the DefaultFocus property. If either of these methods are called to set the control with focus, the value of the DefaultFocus property is ignored.
