Hi,
At the top of my php file I have got :-
<body onblur="self.fo cus();">
so when I click off onto another window, my window comes back up in front
which is perfect. The problem however, is that when I try to type into my
form boxes, the key transfers are all being lost (i.e. keyboard is
disabled)!
Can anyone shed any light?
Thanks, Mark

'Let there be focus'
Translation: Stop stuffing with the focus in the first place.
Er....say again?

Maybe you can shed more light on the whole context. Is that a secondary
window? Why do you need to make that window always up in front of other
windows? Can you elaborate on the analysis, webpage context, design
decision? You maybe trying to find a correct/exact solution to a
bad/wrong design decision.
You understand that making a window get the focus like you do is very
restrictive, very constraining, very user-unfriendly. That's why browser
manufacturers (Opera, Mozilla for starters; don't know about Konqueror,
Safari) are now granting users absolute veto powers over raising and
lowering (against pop-under) windows.

It is for a personal-use script. The program does a 'window.open' to display
a page
which shows current horse-prices. The main window then goes to Betfair. I
then need
to be able to navigate the betfair website, without my 'information' window
disappearing,
so that I may compare prices.
I agree it may not be the best way to do things, but I was told it would be
the simplest :-}
Basically, I need some code which makes sure my window is always at the
front of the
betfair window. I do not care whether its java, win32, PHP or ASP as long as
it gets the
job done :-)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mark

Yes, but will sadly create a new problem - My window will no longer stay at
the front :-(

That changes *everything*, I was thinking you meant on an
internet site visited by others.
For a personal script, you can guarantee the environment
(including single browser) and adjust security settings and
plug-ins (such as pop-up blockers) as required.
Have you tried framing the two pages? What are the URLs?

How do you know your viewer *wants* your page at the front? That is why they
clicked another window, isn't it? To, you know, look at the *other* window.
If I were to encounter such a page I would immediately press the back
button.

I know that when you use an input type="submit", the focus goes
automatically to the button, but I don't want to use a button.

During testing <div style="overflow:auto;"> in CSS I noticed the
mousewheel would work in Mozilla only after I made a <a href="#">some
text</a> link and clicked on that, within the div.
It appears as if Mozilla needs to have the focus set on that div in
order for the mousewheel to work. That's all that link does. The
mousewheel works perfectly in IE without the link. It scrolls the div
even if there is a scrollbar on the page.

Ok here's my situation...
Got an MDI application with a panel to my right that has a tree view
for the project stuff, etc.
Now if I select an item in the tree view, the tree view gains input
focus. After this happens, my MDI children no longer are able to
obtain keyboard focus and therefore no longer receive keyboard
commands. Needless to say, that's a bad thing. :)

I am using VB.NET to control another program. I have the program's window
hwnd; however, I need to be able to set the focus to that other programs
window so I can send it some keystrokes. I thought I could just use the
SetFocus API, but I read somewhere that it will only work for programs
running under that programs thread. Is this true? If so, how can I set focus
to another program's window via VB.NET? Thanks.
