Hi all
I'm trying to find out if this is a known issue, of if there's a
workaround for it. My problem is not with Laszlo-in-10-minutes, at all,
but with the training materials, which also share HTML and SWF. I'm not
sure if it's a Firefox bug, a Laszlo-embed-script bug, or a Flash Player
bug.
There are problems when alternating keyboard focus between a
Flash-compiled Laszlo application and an HTML frame. This can be seen in
Laszlo-in-10-minutes on the PC, running Firefox:
1. Go to http://localhost:8080/lps-3.3.3/laszlo-explorer/
2. Select Laszlo in 10 minutes, then ANY code page.
3. Replace the code with a single <edittext />, and click Update.
4. Now click on the edittext in the right-hand pane (i.e. in the SWF),
and type something.
5. Now click back in the HTML textarea in the middle, and try to type
something. The bug is that the SWF in the right hand pane has
retained keyboard focus, and everything you type goes into the
edittext. This happens despite the fact that there is a blinking
cursor in the textarea field.
The quick workaround that I've found is to Alt-tab away to any other
Windows app, then Alt-tab back to Firefox. From that point, anything you
type will go into the textarea field.
Has anyone seen this, or have any workarounds to it?
