By callback I mean the function that you've defined for execution when the ajax call receives a successful response.
If the focus is being set, then "un-set" I suspect that CF is adding some extra js code that's messing things up. I personally don't ever use CF's brand of ajax functionality (of cfform for that matter) so I can't say for sure why it would be happening. I generally either write my own and lately have started using JQuery a lot more. (Anyone who knows me knows that this is a big step for me to use something pre-written, but that's a different story.) Any chance you can post the output of the ajax call? By that I mean the form stuff that the ajax call adds to the page on successful execution.
