Hi, everyone!
I was wondering if anyone knows how to bring focus to the search bar on Google while using Safari.
Basically, when you go to, say, www.google.com, the cursor is already ready for you to type, but after you make the first search, you have to manually bring it to the search box and click. Is there any shortcut in Safari that will bring focus to a search bar, not necessarily only on Google?
Many thanks!

As used in most browsers per HTML standard, the Tab key can be used to shift focus to the next selectable input field, as defined by the web page. Specifically for use in Google in Safari, three tabs will bring focus to the main search field, when a results page is already loaded.

Where the focus is on loading a web page is defined in that web page, if defined at all. It would be up to Google if they would be willing to change their pages.
Additionally, the Safari address bar doubles as a search field for the default search engine. You can type your next query in there. You can bring focus to that field using ⌘L.
Thanks a lot for your reply! It helped me. I hope there'll be a more direct way to bring focus to the bar soon though. It'd be so useful when searching on Google.
Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.
