85285 - alt-tab to Mozilla: Focus should be on content area.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 84501

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Claude Gohier]

Build ID 2001061104

If I use the taskbar or Alt-tab to switch from another application to mozilla, 
the focus is not on the content area like I think it should.

It is mostly annoying with alt-tab, as if I want to scroll the page using the
keyboard, I have to click first in the content area.

I think this is a dupe of 37638.  Reopen if I'm wrong, otherwise, please post 
comments there :-)

Switching to another application and back shouldn't (and as far as I can tell,
doesn't) change what part of the Mozilla window is focused.  I can't tell from
this bug report where focus actually was or whether alt-tab was the problem. 
cgohier, if you don't think this is a dup of bug 37638, please reopen this bug
and give specific steps that can be used to reproduce the problem.

actually, i think bug 84501 might be more accurate [see bryner's 2001-06-07
comments in bug 58250].
