When the textfield is focused and the user hits enter, the textfield seems to ignore any .focus() calls. This is inconsistent with both FireFox 3.0 RC 2 and Opera 9.26. Safari 3.1.1 has the same problem.
Ruben, would you be so kind to attach a minimal test case demonstrating the problem.
Created attachment 21688 [details] Demonstration using pure js of what SHOULD happen This is what it SHOULD do, i will work on a testcase using mootools that shows the bug.
To clarify: the Mootools JS framework seems to cause the problem, as it works in pure JS, i will try to post a testcase using the framework that shows the bug soon.
After further experimenting, it looks like setting a delay using a Mootools function before going to the next line causes the focus to somehow be ignored: when this delay is removed it works perfectly. At first sight, this function only calls setTimeout, but if implemented in pure JS (without mootools) the bug doesn't show itself yet again... A testcase is coming soon.
