An expansion for those who did a bit of fiddling around like I did.

The following work (from W3):

<input type="text" autofocus />
<input type="text" autofocus="" />
<input type="text" autofocus="autofocus" />
<input type="text" autofocus="AuToFoCuS" />

It is important to note that this does not work in CSS though. I.e. you can't use:

.first-input {
    autofocus:"autofocus"
}

At least it didn't work for me...

Sometimes all you have to do to make sure the cursor is inside the text box is  click on the text box and when a menu is displayed  click on  Format text box  then click on the  text box  tab and finally modify all four margins  left  right  upper and bottom  by arrowing down until  0  appear on each margin
