Set Focus to a table header on page load

Hi,

Is it possible to set focus to a table header during page load? My web page is basically a search-display kind of a page. The search results get displayed in a tabular fashion once the search conditions are entered and the Submit button is clicked. Hyperlink is provided for the table headers to enable sorting. When this is done, the page gets submitted and the control is back to the top of the page. However, the requirement is to place the control at the table header itself. I tried using location.hash and an anchor tag. This however results in the cursor at that position. How can this be done? Please help.

Thanks!
