jquery, set focus on the first enabled input or select or textarea on the page

Question

It's fairly straightforward. I want to set focus to the first enabled and not hidden control on the page.

For a textbox, I have

$("input[type='text']:visible:enabled:first").focus();

But I want to get "all" form input controls: textbox, checkbox, textarea, dropdown, radio in my selector to grab the first enabled and not hidden control. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

$(':input:enabled:visible:first').focus(); 

Answer 2

As an extension of Jordan's answer

$(':input:enabled:visible:not([readonly]):first').focus();

This one also excludes readonly inputs

Answer 3

This is a little more comprehensive:

$('form :input:text:visible:not(input[class*=filter]):first').focus();

Lamen: Focus the cursor in the first text input in a form that is visible, but if it use the class named "filter", ignore it!
