Applet getting focus without user click

I'm writing an applet that takes keyboard input, but I can't get it to start accepting key presses until the I click on it to give it focus.
The applet is running in a webpage in IE.
Can an applet in a webpage get focus on it's own, without having to have the user click on it?

A combination of the suggested solutions gives the Applet focus about 50% of the time. I guess this is the best result I can get, and I'm satisfied with it. Thanks!
In start()
setVisible(true);
requestFocus();
requestFocusInWindow();
requestFocus();
In paint()
if (mFirstPaint)
mFirstPaint = false;
setVisible(true);
requestFocus();
requestFocusInWindow();
requestFocus();
}

Modal Dialog does not get focus on first click

Hi,
Identified an issue in Windows Safari 5 with Modal Dialog boxes. The below is issue.
When a Message box (Validation message) is displayed to the user the control is not getting transferred to the message box instead it still lies with the parent page.
For Example:
A list box is visible with values in parent page, when you click delete, the confirmation message pops up.
On the mouse click on confirmation message, the focus would be changed to an item in the list box of the parent page and that particular item gets deleted instead of the selected item.
Understanding:
-When a Modal dialog box is displayed control is not passed to the Dialog box .
-Once the user click mouse once then the control is passed to the Dialog box.
-The second mouse click only the action is performed.

Work-around: Click on the "title bar" of the modal dialog box. You now have control. If you click other areas of the modal dialog before clicking the title bar, it will usually register behind the box.
I think Apple forgot the code to 'select the modal dialog' after 'displaying it', which is why the work-around works perfectly.
It's a common bug that hasn't been fixed yet in 5.x that did not exist in 4.x. I would submit a bug report and hope they fix it in the next update.

How to prevent Cell from getting focus when I click on a cell in JTable

Hi,
I have a new problem which I did not have when using jdk1.3. I have a non editable JTable. Now whenever I select a row the row gets highlighted - which is ok but at the same time the cell on which I click ( to select the row ) also gets focus.
Previously I used to extend JTable and override the isManagingFocus method to return false. But now it doesnt seem to work
What should
Thanks
--J

Well, I'm still using JDK1.3 and I don't get the behaviour you describe.
When isManagingFocus is true then using the tab key will cause focus to move from cell to cell within the JTable and focus will never leave the JTable.
When isManagingFocus is false then using the tab key will cause focus to move the the JTable to the next component on the JFrame.
In both cases once focus is on the JTable an individual cell is always highlighted to indicate it has focus.
The question is if your program only cares which row has been selected, why do you care if an individual cells appears to have focus?

Can navigation decision be made programmatically without user clicking?

I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4, and have a question about custom page flow -- programmatically forking to one of the pages based on user data.
I have a table that contains a number of columns storing data about users. I created a view object (LoggedInStudent) from this table and overrode the prepareSession() method in the application module.
When a student logs in, the first thing the application does is that the prepareSession() method passes the student's user ID to the LoggedInStudent view object's SQL statement to reduce the view cache to just one row that belongs to the logged-in student.
The very next thing the application needs to do is to navigate the user to one of five pages based on the data in that one row of LoggedInStudent. And this is where I get stuck.
In the faces-config.xml diagram, I added a JSF page (welcome.jsp) with a navigation case from welcome.jsp to each of the other five pages, put a command button on the welcome.jsp page, and in the context menu of this button chose "Create Method Binding for Action".
In the Welcome.java file, whichever navigation from-outcome name the commandButton1_action() method returns, is the next page the user will be navigated to, very nicely. All that needs to be done is to get that row of LoggedInStudent, examine the attributes in it, write the logic and return the right from-outcome name. The only problem is: how to get that row in this Welcome.java class?
Or, could page flow navigation be done from the application module? How? In the application module that one row of the LoggedInStudent is available at finger tips.
I am a newby with JDeveloper. 10.1.3 is page-centric and navigation seems to be neater and easier then in 10.1.2. In the demos online all navigation is event-driven: if there are five pages the user can go to from the current page, there are probably five buttons or links, it is the user who makes the decision which one to click. I believe JDeveloper should also support programmatically making the decision on which next page to navigate to.
I would appreciate it a lot if some experienced developer can help me out, and many thanks in advance.

Hi,
you can access everything what you defined in your Model project also in your Welcome.java file, that basically is called managed bean. for example how to access the instance of the application module you can see here in the documentation: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32110_01/web.1013/b25947/bcservices.htm#sthref681
google more in this forum how to access your view object and current row and value of attribute in similar way...

Checkbox that only change status if user clicks in box

Hi,
I am using CheckBox in JTree and I have problem: If users click on that check box (on the text), it immediately change its status. How can I make it to change its status, only when user clicks on the box and not on the text? It should still take focus when user clicks on the text, but not change its status.
Source of current implementation: http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Swing-JFC/CheckBoxNodeTreeSample.htm
Thank you,
Sasa

Well, I suppose you could fiddle with the event handling in JCheckBox, but an easier way would be creating a component which is basically a composite of the JCheckBox (without text) and a JLabel. Make your editor return a JPanel with a BorderLayout and install the checkbox in the west panel and the label in center.

Getting a video to stop playing when user clicks on another button to navigate

Hello,
I am trying to create a little website in flash.. I have some video that plays automatically once the user goes to that section (I am using frame labels to navigate from section to section of the site).
But, when the user clicks another button to go to a different page, the video is still playing because I hear it..How can I stop the video from playing once another button gets clicked?
thanks
babs

All's you should need, if the video starts playing on its own, is...
function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent) {
     if (this.currentLabel == "about") {
          about_mc.vid_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
     gotoAndStop(evtObj.target.name);
If the video needs to be kick started because it was sent back to stop at frame 1 due to a previous navigation, then place that kick start in the about frame itself... about_mc.vid_mc.play();
If that's not working, be sure to check that your instance names are assigned. Also, I have been assuming that the video is embedded into the timeline of the movieclip, so if that's not the case, then some other solution may be needed.

How to disable button once user click once in an Applet?

Hi,
We are facing an issue with Applet level button.
User is clicking multiple times on button and we don't want to allow users to click multiple times.
So that How to disable the button after clicking once.
Thanks,
Sandep.

Since you don't saying what version of Siebel you are on, I assume
8.0 or later.
You can use this on if you applet class is CSSFrame, CSSFrameList, or any of their subclasses.
On the applet add, Applet User Prop:
Name
CanInvokeMethod: InvokeWF
Value
[DisableButton]='N' OR [DisableButton] IS NULL
More info here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B40099_02/books/ToolsDevRef/ToolsDevRef_UserProps6.html
On the applet add, Applet User Prop:
Name
Named Method
Value
"InvokeWF", "SET", "DisableButton", "Y"
More info here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B40099_02/books/ToolsDevRef/ToolsDevRef_UserProps21.html
Make sure the field DisableButton is active (Use Force Active on BC if the field isn't active)
Make sure the field has "Immediate Post Changes" set to true on the BC.
Axel
PS: Don't use scripts if you can solve the problem with user props, WF, .... Scripting should
be you last resort.
