I have error messages in anchor tag. When you click on it, it should focus/take the cursor to the respective form field. It works in IE but does not work in FF or Chrome. Am I doing something wrong here?

    <a href="javascript:document.getElementById('firstName').focus()">Go to first name</a>
    

    I think is the only way.
