ActiveX Controls don't treat Focus the same

The Html Edit Control focus issues are pretty major. Lots of things that work in 'unexpected' ways and if you want consistent focus you pretty much need to manage the Window Events yourself. What's worse it's very difficult to force focus into the actual edit region.

I posted a series of BLOG entries around these problems and their eventual solution here: http://west-wind.com/weblog/posts/1869.aspx (you can follow the links to get to the beginning of the chain).

It would be nice if this was internally handled in VFP with a special check like the Web Browser viewer which has special code in VFP too to behave differently than oter ActiveX controls.

I think I may be experiencing similar issues with the .NET WebBrowser control and so far I haven't found any way to solve it. I'm going to try some of the suggestions that Calvin offers here though in hopes that it may also apply in my case.

Check out my post below for more information, I'll make sure to post any progress I have there as well.
