    Try to change document.frm.txtName.focus() to document.forms[0].txtName.focus(). This will work in IE.

    Make shure that your <form name="frm"> is the first form on page. I.e: before this form shuldn’t be any other <form> elements in document.

    If you can’t do that just add the id attribute to the your txtName text field. For example :

    <input type="text" name="txtName" id="someId">

    And in your function setFocus write:

    function setFocus(){
   document.getElementById('someId').focus()
}
