This works in IE:
window.onload = setFocusOnLoad;
function setFocusOnLoad(){
${swf}.focus();
}

This is because the Flash Player instance itself (Object/Embed tag) does
not have the focus in the Browser. There is a bit of javascript code
that will set the focus, but last I heard it only works in IE. I can
find that script if it would be useful.

Subject: [flexcoders] txtbx focus at login
This is a bit odd. When I first open the application, the focus IS set
on the login txtbx but when I start typing nothing happens.
If I tab to the password txtbx I can type. If I tab back to the login,
I can type.
If I click anywhere on the flex app, not just in the login txtbx, I can
type.
I know the focus is on the login txtbx because there is an orange box
around it. When tabbing to the password, the orange box moves to the
password.
I tried setting focus to the flash object in the html wrapper within a
window.onload event using both focus() and click(). Nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks - Robert.
Here's some code:
MXML:
<mx:Label text="@Resource( key='loginId' , bundle='Labels' )"
fontWeight=" bold" width="60" />
<mx:TextInput id="usernameInput" width="140" />
AS:
override protected function init():void{
super.init() ;
this.logger. debug("init" );
this.loginForm. defaultButton = this.loginButton;
this.usernameInput. setFocus( );
}
