focus stays on address bar on dillo-3.0 pre
Hi all. I tried dillo-3.0 pre and found that focus stays on address bar after I typed URL. This behavior was fixed on dillo-2.0 but it appears again on 3.0 pre. Regards, furaisanjin

Good point. This is not a BUG, but AFAIR just lack of definition an what to do. Some people prefer focus to stay on the location (to type for similar URLs), and others to focus the main area. I've found use for both, but now tend more to focusing the main area. Quick poll: what do you prefer? -- Cheers Jorge.-

I prefer focusing on the main area, like every browser's been doing since 1994. ;-) ~Benjamin

I wonder who would want to type another URL right after loading the first one? I think that it is more convenient when focus is moved to content. -- -- Rogut?s Sparnuotos

I also want focus on main. I agree with the parent post that if you've just typed/selected a URL, you wouldn't normally want to input a new one. -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes@waltdnes.org>

I remembered it helped when browsing local images, or content that's separated in pages or slides... Although it doesn't make much sense anymore. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Done! (BTW, it's good to find something where everybody agrees upon ;). -- Cheers Jorge.-

Focusing main.

Focussing main to be able to immediately start scrolling with the keyboard after the page has loaded. I found it too often annoying when (in other browsers) some site sets the focus after loading to some input field like e.g. the search area and therefore prevents scrolling. Latest example was the online shop at galaxus.com.

Oh, ok, cool. Then I don't mind. I have to admit that I didn't test it, but was just annoyed by such issues in general, just again shortly before I read that thread. :-) Kind regards, Axel -- /~\ Plain Text Ribbon Campaign | Axel Beckert \ / Say No to HTML in E-Mail and News | abe@deuxchevaux.org (Mail) X See http://www.asciiribbon.org/ | abe@noone.org (Mail+Jabber) / \ I love long mails: http://email.is-not-s.ms/ | http://noone.org/abe/ (Web)
