There was no "condescension" intended in any of my prior messages on this group, and neither will this be. It will be just harsh or annoyingly bitter for having to repeat myself (in vain) for the third time. > Your initial response was basically summed up as "attach an observer". No. _Basically_ what I was trying to do was to point that "what to do upon focusing a control element" it's a HIG issue. More than that, I even provided an answer to your particular issue: to attach a "focus" observer that should change focusing behaviour in the manner you wanted. You replied confirming my supposition that accessibility guidelines are beyond you, so I tried once again to make you understand this is not a Prototype/SAU issue, but yada-yada. More than that, being in a cheerful HTH mood, I took the time forging an example presenting how to "attach a 'focus' observer on that element to do that (you know, the usual selection/text range operations)". Yes, *THAT*, and NOT an example on "how to go about overriding existing functions" (how low can you go?) :( > Leaving that behind, you've still failed to convince me that this is a > vendor issue... Example: focus a single-line-control-element using keyboard under ... a) Microsoft Windows XP - - Run: Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> "General" - - use "Tab" (or/and "Shift-Tab") to focus the input field containing the "Home page Adress" value. b) GTK/Gnome on GNU/Linux - - Run: Mozilla Firefox -> Edit -> Preferences -> "Main" - - use "Tab" (or/and "Shift-Tab") to focus the input field containing the "Home Page" value. c) QT/KDE on GNU/Linux - - Run: Opera -> Tools -> Preferences -> "General" - - use "Tab" (or/and "Shift-Tab") to focus the input field containing the "Home Page" value. etc. Andrew, I'm still not being condescending.
