           Here is sample content!
       </Content>
   </telerik:radeditor>
   <input type="text" id="text"/>
   <input type="button" value="Set Focus On RadEditor" onclick="SetFocusOnRadEditor()" />
   <script type="text/javascript">
    function SetFocusOnRadEditor() {
        var editor = $find("<%=RadEditor1.ClientID%>"); //get a reference to RadEditor client object
        editor.setFocus(); //set the focus on the the editor
    }
    function SetFocusOnTextBox() {
        var editor = $get("text"); //get a reference to the input textbox with id text
        editor.focus(); //set the focus on the the textbox
    }
   </script>
   </form>
