my solution to this problem was to put an onload handler on the <body> tag:
<body style="margin: 1px; padding: 1px;" onload="focusApp();">
and the script:
<script language="JavaScript">
function focusApp()
{
if ( typeof(console) != "undefined" )
console.debug( "focusing app..." ) ;
var e = document.getElementById( "lzapp" ) ;
if ( typeof(console) != "undefined" )
console.debug( "app element:" + e ) ;
e.focus() ;
}
</script>
I develop in Firefox and I have Firebug loaded, hence the if (
typeof(console) != "undefined" )....console.debug(...) statements.

I've got a solution where a SWF8 based OL 4.1.1 app is loaded in an
iframe.
After the app starts and the fields render, I set the focus of the
initial field. The events are sent and received ok, but the if the
user has not clicked on the flash app, the field does not receive the
focus.
If I do this in DHTML, the initial field receives the focus correctly
when the app starts, but focustrap fails to work, which isn't attractive.
Is there a way to give the flash app focus after calling
lz.embed.swf()? Is it worth filing in JIRA?
