How to set the focus to the first input element in an HTML form independent from the ID with JavaScript?
To set the focus to the first input element in an HTML form independent from the ID with JavaScript, we can use the document.forms property to get the form and the inputs inside the form.
For instance, we write
document.forms[0].elements[0].focus();
to get the first form with document.forms[0].
Then we use elements[0] to get the first element in the form.
Finally, we call focus on it to focus on the element.
Conclusion
