I've just been experimenting.  BBxM, RO 5.23 (12 Apr 17), MPRO 7.08,
NS CI #4085.  Some links don't take the input focus, some do.  At the
moment it's just an observation; I haven't looked at the email source
to see if I can discern any difference.  For any given link, I think
the result has been consistent.

Mine is 5.23 (2016-June-29).  (I should get round to the upgrade!)

Still using Netsurf 3.3 here, and the same effect...

Just tried it again here. MPro window with yellow top-bar and NetSurf 
window with grey bar. Same NetSurf build. Odd.

Best wishes,

Peter.

It happens here as Jim described (using the Archive url), with ROS
5.23 (19 Jan 17). The difference is that the mail reader is Pluto.

Doesn't appear to be Jim specific.

I confess to not having noted this as a change but I can confirm that as
of now (using Netsurf #4085) the behaviour here is as Jim has described.
A click on the Archive magazine link in the Pluto article viewer which
has the input focus opens the web page in Netsurf and the Netsurf window
gains the input focus.

input focus

[Jim Nagel]

I notice that the input focus -- often but not always -- goes to 
Netsurf when I click on a link in an email that opens a web page.

This was not the case until fairly recently*.  The input focus always 
used to remain with the email window.

Is this the result of a deliberate change in Netsurf, or is it just a 
fluke of some sort?

Not a serious problem, just that I have to consciously change some of 
my habitual keystrokes in a repetitive chore that I do.

(* I first noticed the different input-focus behaviour with Netsurf 
#4001 and now #4085.  In my previous versions (#3955 and back), 
Netsurf did not take the input focus till I explicitly clicked in its 
window.  Throughout this period, my email software has had no update.)

Using Ro 5.23 on ArmX6, Ro 5.22 on Armini (Beagle).
