Subject: [Flashcoders] Set Focus with JAWS running

Hi,

 

Is there any way in flash where we can get the focus to the desired location
on click of a button?

 

For Example:  Suppose, we have 3 text fields and 3 buttons on a stage. When
we run the application with JAWS running, on click of button_1, the focus
should go to text1_txt and jaws should start reading the text from that
text field. Same applies to rest of the buttons and text fields.

 

Can we do this using action script or java script is required?
