I tried searching for the answer to my question but I can't figure out what terminology to use.

I want to block all Javascript on google.com except for the piece of code that places the cursor in the search box on the main http://www.google.com search page.

Is there a way to pick and choose which code on a page will be blocked?

Is there a way? Short answer, YES. However, it requires some expertise on your part, so depending on your level of ability to manipulate client side coding, it could be a NO. There is no per se, EASY way to do it. Its a slightly messy hack.

Could you point me in the right direction? I should be able to pick it up from there.

There is what dhouwn suggested, but that may not work to the ends that you are looking for. But you can take a look and see if it does what you want. Personally I would use a Greasemonkey script tempered well with an ABE rule. Both are options, your call and as I said comes down to how much you know, how much you are willing to do and what works best for you. I think personally too much trouble for a [searchbox].setfocus style function but to each their own. Good luck.
