When publishing in HTML I cannot get the focus to set on my input text box.
Using Selection.setFocus in the action script and Transparent Windowless in
the Windows Mode in Publish Settings, I am able to get a flashing cursor, but I
still must click on the screen to allow for keyboard input.
It works fine when I open it as an swf file, but not when I open it embedded
in an HTML file. I have read that this is a problem that must be fixed in
HTML, but I have not found the solution. Any suggestions?
Thank you

You need to use javascript to set the window's focus on the flash.

Thanks for your help.
For Internet Explorer goto

solution.
For Firefox it is a lot more complicated. Goto

I haven't tried the solution for Firefox yet
