Greetings - <br />
<br />
I used to use the following function to place the cursor in a specific field in ASP.Net. &nbsp;since moving to VS 2010, it no longer works, producing this error:<br />
JavaScript runtime error: Unable to get property 'focus' of undefined or null reference<br />
<br />
What is the new syntax?<br />
<br />
Here is my old code:<br />
<br />
&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; language=&quot;JavaScript&quot; src=&quot;MenuReturn.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/scri<wbr />pt&gt;<br />
*<br />
*<br />
*<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;body onload=&quot;FormLoad()&quot;&gt;<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;&gt;<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; function FormLoad()<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; {<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; document.all('txtMiscServi<wbr />ceDate').f<wbr />ocus(); &nbsp; &nbsp;// set focus to specific field on Load<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; }<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/script&gt;

JavaScript Function no longer working since moving to VS 2010

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
