Your inner $(this).filter(...) doesn't make sense to me. This works for me
on FF2/Mac:
$(':input:visible').filter(function() {
return $(this).parents(':hidden').length == 0;
}).slice(0,1).focus();
That is: Select all visible inputs elements, filter out any who have parents
which are hidden, select the first one of those that remain, focus it.
