or better yet, access the field named "title" through the elements array:

document.widgets.elements['title'].focus();

i'd even take it a step further and do the same for widgets and the forms
array.  that makes it crystal clear what the intention is down the road.

document.forms['widgets'].elements['title'].focus();

good luck,
