Focus on DIV on Page load

I'm using 

$("#divVZITab").attr("tabindex",-1).focus();

On page load I want divVZITab to become the focus, it is in the center of page. So when page loads IE should automatically scroll to the center of the page & focus on the div. But it is not working.

As you mentioned IE, I think that is the issue because I tried in jsfiddle and works fine. I tried in IE with tabindex="-1" and does not work but for positive (+ve) value of tabindex="1" it works. BTW run script after the DOM is ready.

HTML

<div id='divVZITab' tabindex="1">Test</div>

JavaScript

document.getElementById('divVZITab').focus();
