233210 - Focus on an applet's text field components cannot be regained after focus on another window's component has been made

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Eric Chang]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425

Using the Java 1.4.x plugin on Mozilla 1.3.1 running on Red Hat 8.0, if one has 
an applet with a JTextfield component, and focus is gained on another window's 
component (button, text field, etc.), the focus on the JTextfield in the 
original window cannot be regained.
For example, if there is an applet with a text field, and a button that will 
bring up Mozilla's print dialog, and the user clicks on the button to bring up 
the pring dialog and then cancels it by clicking on the Cancel button in the 
print dialog (thereby, "gaining" focus on the Cancel button), focus cannot be 
regained in the applet's JTextfield component.  The will also apply to 
Javascript buttons as well.  


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Gain focus on a component outside the applet.
2. Attempt to gain focus on a textfield in the applet.

Actual Results:  
The cursor will not appear in the textfield in the applet.

Expected Results:  
Focus should be able to be obtained in the textfield.

Can you post an URL that contains a testcase?
Also, try a newer version of Mozilla as 1.3.1 is almost a year old.

Mass-closing bugs in the "OJI" component: OJI plugin integration was replaced with npruntime long ago, and these bugs appear to be irrelevant now. If there is in fact a real bug that remains, please file it new in the "Core" product, component "Plug-ins".
