Since I have installed build 2002101804, every reload of a page/frame sets the
focus to the just reloaded page/frame.
This is EXTREMLY ANNOYING!!!
E.g., while typing this few lines, I had to go back to this textarea ~5-10 times
because some other opened pages did a reload/refresh and my current page lost
its focus. >:-((( Or when I write an email, exactly the same happens... :-(((
IMHO, as long as there is no .focus() done by a page, the focus has to stay
where it is!!!
Please change this asap. I really can not work with it like this.
PS: I was not able to find a similar bug!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a couple of pages with auto-reload-tags (META...)
2. Goto a different page (and focus it)
3. just wait
Actual Results:
As soon as the page is reloaded, it pops in front.
Expected Results:
My page with current focus keeps its focus!!!

I am not quite sure it it is the META-refresh, but the javascript
location.reload() that causes this problem...

I am quite sure it is only when setting .location.href
And still present in 2002102808!!!
It is horrible! Could someone please fix this bug???
Hope "DOM Level 0" is the correct part to address it to?

Today I just have installed 2002121408 and now I have to raise this bug to
severity "blocker". In the last builds, it was just annoying (the focus only
changed it the reloded page-content changed), now Mozilla is simply unusable for
me (because an every page-reload the focus is lost)! I will (I am forced to!!!)
switch back to 1.2.1 after updating this bug! :-(
Now, if I have more Mozilla windows open, as soon as a frame/page is reloaded by
javascript (see attached html-source for details), this window will pop on top.
I hope you do understand what this means, e.g. you are writing an email and have
a browser-window open, containing a js-reload and this will be done, this window
is on top and your email-window lost its focus. But you are still typing a few
chars and unexpected things can happen. Or you are e.g. filling out a form and a
window in the background does a reload, it immediatelly pop up in front... :-(((
waslos.de has a small "pager"-frame, displaying you updates. This frame is the
bottom middle frame in the window. If nothing happens, it is just blue.
Otherwise you will see some information in that line. This frame (see
attachment) is reloaded every 5 seconds. An due to that, all 5 secs, I loose the
focus now. Normally waslos.de is running in the background and I am just
switching to it after a while. Now, it pops up EVERY 5 SECONDS!!! >:-(((
*** TESTCASE ***
1. open http://nuernberg.waslos.de in an own/new window
2. login as
ID / Nickname: MozillaTest
Passwort: MozTest
(case sensitive!!!)
3. just open a different page in a different mozilla window and "try" to surf as
usual...
@Matti: I have added you to this bug because I hope you can take a look onto
this bug because I have opened it a long time ago now and it seems that nobody
has seen ist. Maybe the ist not the correct one. I am sorry, I am not that keen
on this.

This frame (as part of nuernberg.waslos.de) reloades every 10 seconds (not 5 as
I originally thought) and makes me really crazy.
With IE5/6 & Mozilla before 1.3, there is no focus-loss!!!

->Event Handling and confirming with a 2 day old win2k cvs build.
Type in a text field on a page (comment field) while the page reloads and you
will loose the foxus.
BTW: a long time ? This is "only" 2 months old and it will be now unfixed a
really long time :-(

I can't reproduce this using Firefox branch 20041019 and the steps in comment 3.
I've tried opening the page in both a new tab and a new window. I see it
reload, and I'm able to keep typing on whatever page I'm on (like this bug report).
This has been fixed somewhere along the way, either by the fix for bug 124750 or
something else. Marking wfm.
