User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

With form elements and java applets as objects on a page, both with tabindex
set, it is impossible to tab from the form element to the object. The focus is
completly lost.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the attatched HTML page
2. Click on first input element
3. Press the TAB Key

Actual Results:  
Focus is lost. No cursor in applet. No reaction on further TABs.

Expected Results:  
Activate the applet. Show the cursor.


Deactivating applets with the TAB Key also fails. Is this included in Issue
93149 or shoud this be filled in as new bug?

-> Bryner, focus bugs. Maybe Sun can help.

This is a dupe of bug 162723.
However, not yet marking it as such as this seems slightly larger in that the
textbox in the applet doesn't get focus when the applet does. (Should it?)

The textbox shoud get the focus with the applet. But the applet does not get the
focus. If you add a java.awt.event.FocusListener to the Testcase class it is
only called after a mouse click on the applet.
