Activate Search Bar
Hi,
Whenever I visit any page on imdb, I think that the search bar should automatically get selected so that one can search or write directly without selecting it. It really become easy for the users searching for movies and actors. For demo you can visit youtube.com.
Thanks,
Nikunj V. Pandit

It would be helpful here because it's really the only thing to type. Anything else, you're clicking anyway.
Good idea.

I would guess it's getting less important though, with the use of tablets and other devices, for which you have to click/touch anyway, just to get the keyboard to come on.

So it is not true that it would be beneficial to all users.

They are not complying with standard Windows practices.

As a web developer, I would have to agree. The Search field on imdb.com should initially have focus. Hope it gets done...

Auto-focus for the IMDb search bar please?.
Please make your "Find Movies, TV shows, Celebrities and more..." search auto-focus. It would help users like me able to more quickly find what we're looking for.
