Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 124750

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Mike Calmus]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529

If a URL containing a form is opened in a background tab, the cursor focus is
incorrectly shifted to fields on the background tab rather than staying on the
tab in the foreground. Focus events should not be fired to set focus to a form
field that is not in the foreground.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a tab with a form in the foreground
2. Open another tab with a form in the background. Put a setFocus event in onLoad
3. Enter text into form field of forground form
4. Continue entering text as background tab fully loads

Actual Results:  
Cursor shifted from field on foreground tab to field on background tab.

Expected Results:  
Not change focus. Leave focus at field on foreground tab.
