Well, it only works for me when I run it from Builder.
Here is my code:
...
);
document.tasktracking.focus();
} else { // flash is too old or we can't detect the plugin
var alternateContent = 'Alternate HTML content should be placed
here. '
+ 'This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. '
+ 'a href=http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash/Get Flash/a';
document.write(alternateContent); // insert non-flash content
}
I have set stage as well.

[flexcoders] Re: MaskedTextInput
When you deploy, you need to mirror this code in the HTML file that
users will access to reach the SWF file. One thought is to simply
copy the file in its entirety and make that your index.html for your
website.
Does that make sense?

This *is* possible.
In your html-template directory, locate the index.template.html file.
In the file, locate these lines of code (should be around Lines
90-thru-100, assuming you haven't modified this file):
== CODE ===
} else { // flash is too old or we can't detect the plugin
var alternateContent = 'Alternate HTML content should be placed

stage.focus = YOUR_MASKED_INPUT;
