This is one way to do it:
To ensure that the correct option is selected when the page loads then
the html should resemble this:
<select id="theSelect">
<option value="a">This should not be selected</option>
<option value="b" selected>This SHOULD be selected</option>
</select>
It is the "selected" part of the correct <option> tag that makes it
appear selected.
To get the focus onto the select control, you've almost got it right.
The javascript for the above example could be:
document.getElementById("theSelect").focus();
There's many similar ways to achieve the same thing though: this is just
one.
