now has its own repo (https://github.com/macmikey/xpdf)

It's really embarrassing that I didn't remember xpdf. At all. Especially
since Paul did a video about it at LCG THIS YEAR. Watching it again now.
Thanks PM!

We do have a business license, and I have no idea what xpdf is, so now I'm
going to do some research.

For your own pages you could use pace

Unless something changed, the built in spinner uses the single threaded engine,
so any processing done by the engine will halt the spinner, thereby making the
spinner just the other side of worthless for anything but non-blocking

On my silly phone now as in bed. Wonder if you couldn't use a splash screen
substack with a spinner? Will try this tomorrow, although am uncertain re
substacks in the HTML5 standalone.

Related use case: some web pages download a "ton" of javascript at start

I can't find a way to set a "spinner/I-am-downloading" on the screen,
until we get some content

The HTMLElement.blur() method removes keyboard focus from the current element.
Is Google or similar defunct with you?

Just a hunch maybe you can quickly toggle visibility of the
widget..after everything is loaded. maybe that will be enough to lose
focus and not have to regain it? unlikely to work, but worth a try.

Hi Mike
This is actually a problem for all widgets with native layers. There’s also the
additional complexity with the browser widget that some pages when you open
them they have javascript that focuses in on something.
I have a PR that makes `the focusedObject` and `focus on nothing | object`
already tried focusing on another control, and, I have no idea what
document.activeElement.blur() is supposed to do, but that didn't fix it
either.

Did you already try
do "document.activeElement.blur()" in widget "browser" ?

might be dumbbut what if istead of focus on nothing you focused on
another control that passes the rawkey?

One additional note, Panos suggested that browserDocumentLoadFailed might
be firing.
Surprise it is, but the error is
"plug-in handled load"
but firing a "focus on nothing" inside that event doesn't help, either.

How do we take focus away from the browser widget?
I am loading PDF's into the browser widget. At that point, all key presses
get eaten up by the widget (e.g. arrows make the widget scroll), even if a
field has the insertion point.
Scripting the widget to intercept those events doesn't work.
