Hellos,

http://ruphus.com/code/js/focusdebug/dropdown.html

I'm trying to debug a problem with focus and Firebug, and I really
can't figure out what's causing the problem. The samples in that demo
are variations on this theme:

    $('#clickme').click(function(){
        $('#yourname').get(0).focus();
        return false;
    });

<a href="#" id="clickme">click to fill out form</a>
<div  id="one" class="dropdown"><strong>your name:</strong> <input
id="yourname"></div>

Focusing works only sporadically.

For a while I thought the problem had to do with the fact that the
input I wanted to focus was revealed by a slideDown, or then that it
had to do with a need for a timeout; hence to the other three variants
in my demo. '

But at this point I'm just thinking it's some sort of weird Firefox
bug. (It works in Opera, haven't tested elsewhere.)

Anyone run into this?
