FWIW, I've always previewed in a browser before but the idea of an
auto-update when I make changes sounded really good so I decided to
try Preview in BBEdit. Why can't the preview be updated without
bringing it to the front and losing focus on the editing window!?!
That's not the intrinsic behavior, nor is that how it behaves on any
computer to which I have access.
Does the code you're previewing have a JavaScript or some other
construct that brings the browser window to the front?
Indeed.
<body onload="window.focus()" id="body" >
That's the culprit.
Thank goodness. I just *knew* something was not right. I could not
imagine that such behavior would be tolerated.
FWIW, the page in question was received from a client who wanted me
to make changes. Bad luck, I suppose, that this should be my first
experience with previewing in BBEdit. Whew!
