Put cursor in first form box on page
------------------------------------

                 Key: OFBIZ-919
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-919
             Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project)
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: framework
    Affects Versions: SVN trunk
            Reporter: David Shere
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: SVN trunk


I'm was looking for something like this:

focusInFirstBox = yes

in a properties file somewhere, so that one setting would apply to every page. Is there any other interest in this?  I'm told it would require quite a bit of FTL re-writes.  I suppose it might be a lot of work for not a lot of benefit, but I wanted to get others' thoughts.

-----------------------------------

My recommendation would be to make this a "best practice" for accessibility reasons. So, we wouldn't need a property setting - OFBiz would place the focus as a standard practice.

-----------------------------------

To get an idea of the scope of this improvement, I did a search in all ftl files for "<form" - which returned 200 files. Not that all of those files would have to be changed, but they would all have to be checked to see if they contain a field to focus on.
