Be aware that this is reliable in IE, but may not work in FireFox. I do not know about the other browsers.

You can achieve this by adding this to your html wrapper (yourproject/ html-template/ index.template. html): <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> function focusFlash() { ${application}.focus(); } </script> and modify the body tag like so: <body onload="focusFlash" > Once that's in there, the usual FocusManager code in your flex will work: focusManager. setFocus( username) ; Toby On 17/03/2009, at 5:54 PM, sony antony wrote: Hi, Can anyone help me out with this craziness of flex..

While i was tracking this issue, I was caught up in <http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-879> http://bugs. adobe.com/ jira/browse/ FP-879 . There they specified about some kind of html wrapper code. I dint get any idea about it. Please somebody help me to fix this. Thanks & Regards, Sony _____ Check out the all-new face of Yahoo!
