In order for this to work, your application _as a whole_ needs to do
two things. One of them is (in Flex) to use the setFocus() method to
specify where (in the Flex applications) focus should go. From your
posting it appears that you have already done this.
The other thing is that the _entire Flex application itself_ needs to
first get focus. This is not done in Flex, it needs to be done in the
'HTML Wrapper' page which loads the Flex application. Please locate
your Flex project's "index.template.html" file and open it for
editing. Then add JavaScript code which will cause the Flex
application to receive focus when the HTML page is loaded. The
simplest way to do this is to add an inline event handler to the
page's <BODY> element. For example, if the HTML Wrapper page is being
viewed in the IE v7 Web browser, then the following code should work:
<body scroll="no" onLoad="window.document.${application}.focus();">
Please note that the behavior might be slightly different in other
browsers (i.e., FireFox, Safari, etc.) and you may have to tweak the
JavaScript code to achieve a robust solution.
