How do I have the cursor start/be placed in a test or list control when the screen is displayed?

Modify the body tag. Add JavaScript to trigger "onload":

<body onload="document.form1.controlID.focus()" >

This assumes that your form is named "form1", and that the control you want to have focus has the ID "controlID".

Of course, to be completely cross-browser, you could also use:

document.getElementById("controlID").focus()
