Is there a way in Safari to default a new tab's focus to the search box?

In the safari browser is there a tweak you can make so that when a new tab is created the main focus point jumps to 开发者_运维问答the search box in the browser or at least to the address bar instead of focusing to the home page?

You can modify Safari like this:

Settings -> General -> New tabs open with: Empty page

This will make the cursor start in the address bar. Which in turn can be used to query a search engine or to directly enter an URL.

If you want the tab to become active immediately then you may want to do:

Settings -> Tabs -> Check: "When a new tab or window opens, make it active"

The default on my system was that the cursor was in the search box within the home page. The home page was: http://search.strtpoint.com/ and "open new tabs with" was "Homepage"

Glims can do this: "Sets the focus on the search field when opening a new window" Link

I doubt it. That would be up to the browser.
