Hello,
I am writing an On-screen keyboard, similar to the one included in
windows 2k and XP.
The problem I am having is that I need my keyboard to never get the
focus, but still be able to process events such as mouse clicks.
I have tried setting focus back to the app that just lost the focus,
however in smoe application this does not work as the caret/cursor is
not returned to its original position. Therefore, I need to stop the
app that I'm writing to eg. IE or notepad, from ever losing the focus,
or rather, stop my app from activating/getting the focus.
I have tried various API's using various flags, but to no avail.
The closest I got was by using the SetWindowLong API with the
WS_EX_NOACTIVAT E flag, which does stop my app from ever getting focus,
but it also makes it transparent and unable to receive any mouse
events.
I have been struggling with this for a couple of weeks now, so any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Dave :o)

With the body tag calling out 'window onload', a function with a
'window.open' fails at the 'window.open' line. If I cut out the body
tag, the function executes as normal.
At first I thought it was the entire function failing, but I tested
with alerts and found that it was only the 'window.open' that fails to
execute.
The function is being called by a link, and I suspected some problem
with the body alink/vlink but after cutting that out...

Hi.
I am opening a form (frmUserSettings) just before (or so I thought) the
Main Menu form (frmMainMenu) is opening but it's not getting the focus.
It gets "painted" and then the Main Menu gets "painted" right on top of
the frmUserSettings. Since the Main Menu form is smaller (in width and
height) I can click on frmUserSettings and get it to the front (focus).
But is there a way to do this programmatically? Can you help me?
Here is...
