[thelist] js form validation problem

I'm having a problem with returning the focus to the correct form
element after doing simple js validation.
The JS is:
function chkNum(sName) {
var sv = sName.value
if (isNaN(sv)) {
alert("Please enter a valid number.");
sName.select();
sName.focus();
}
return true;
}
And the form element calls it thusly:
<input type="Text" name="stock<%=i%>" class="txtbox2" size="4"
onchange="chkNum(this)">
The problem is that while the correct element is being selected, the
focus is going to the next element.
This is bizarre, and I just can't see why it's happening. (it's
occurring in both moz & ie)
Thanks for any help!
