[/] For newpost I recommend using this... <body onload="document.replier.Subject.focus();"> ...which will bring focus to the subject box instead :-)

Btw have you seen that Ken Jennings programmer guy on Jeaoprdy who's cleaning up with well over a million in winnings already? Now I bet that guy is a coding god to the nth degree
