Keyboard focus within Applet

843807Oct 22 2002 — edited Oct 22 2002

I have an applet that can run in a browser or as an application. The applet has a number of components in which the user can enter information (such as a JTextField). When I run the applet as an application outside of a browser the keyboard focus works as expected, focus is in the first JTextField and the tab key will move from one field to the next. When I run the applet from the browser, focus is not in any of the JTextFields and if I position to a JTextField the tab key does not move to the next field. I have tried the requestFocus call from the applet init code and from the components with no luck. Can anyone tell me what is required?

I have tried it on both Netscape 6.x and IE 6.0.

Thanks
