9 == SYNOPSIS:
10
11 If you have this two forms in your view...
12
13 form_for @user do |f|
14 f.text_field :name
15 f.text_field :surname
16 fields_for @post do |g|
17 g.text_field :title
18 g.text_area :content
19 end
20 end
21
22 form_for @post do |f|
23 f.text_field :title
24 end
25
b48670a5 » dcadenas 2008-10-15 updated README 26 ...you'll see that the name field will have focus. Disabled and readonly fields are ignored.

28 If you want to disable this behaviour just add :autofocus => false and the form will have the original Rails behaviour. So if for example you want to give focus to the second form in your view you'd just disable autofocus in the first form:
29
30 form_for @user, :autofocus => false do |f|
31 f.text_field :name
32 f.text_field :surname
33 end
34
35 form_for @post do |f|
36 f.text_field :title
37 f.text_field :content
38 end
39
40 And now the focus will be in the title field.
