9i AS Portal: How to set focus on a field in a form on page load?

I'm trying to develop a business application on Ora9i AS Portal with little luck (seems every five minutes its somthing new). My latest snag is that I need the focus to be in the first textbox of a form to receive input from a bar-code scanner. On change, I need the focus to switch to the next field.

In portal, how do you set the focus? And, particularly, how do you set the focus on page load? I can do this with Javascript easy enough, but I can't add any code to the <body> tag (onload). I can probably handle everything except this with javascript.

Thanks in advance,
Brad
