Focus input box when a div is clicked

I have an input inside a div element (id = "edit). I was wondering how, onclick of the div area, I could activate the cursor in the input field.

use .attr() to add and removeAttr() to remove attribute "disabled" for the text box on the event click on the div.

use .focus() function like this:

$('#yourDiv').click(function() {
    $('#yourInput').focus();
});

You could use a <label for="edit"> element. That would focus the <input> element when clicked.
