form field options
I thought this was possible but I can't fnid it. I have a simple form with a bunch of text fields (not textarea fields).

I want to have it so that when the form first appears, many of the fields are pre-filled out. Then the user can just replace that text if it happens to not be right. I know you can have default values for checkboxes, radio buttons, and pulldown menus, but can this be done for a simple text field?

You can by using this:
input type="text" name="location" size="50" value="whatever you want in here"

another thing for forms, is the label tag, this allows people to click on the actually words or the input box, radio, checkboxs ..
