Does anyone have a method - that they are willing to share for expanding the normal Microsoft clientside validation to automagically set the focus - upon the validation firing to the first field that failed the validation - I have a method, which involves intercepting the page_validate function in Javascript, but it is less than optimal, if changes the behavior of the main function so that other controls that depend on this, then fail, so I am discarding this as an option Anyone else got any solutions DavidM
