    Windows 7 JavaScript issue window.focus()


    Hi
    I am using Windows 7 and IE8 in my application. I am opening a new pop window using window.open(). After submit, my request will reload the same opup. While reloading the page is hiding behind the parent window. I have tried using window.focus() to bring the popup front, its not working. This problem occurs only if i use Win 7 and IE8.
    Is this issue specif to Win 7? Is there any soln for this issue?

    I have the same issue - window.focus() does not work for me in IE8 in Windows7, but works fine in XP with the same exact version of IE8. Also works fine in mozilla & sarafi - have you had any update on this, or anyone else have updates?

For some reason the "focus" goes away from the page I'm on and my cursor disappears Whether it's in Word on the Internet etc. I can click back on the page and it reappears. The "title" bar lightens up so the focus must be going to another program. It happens no matter what I'm looking at. Hide...
