Hello,
I am researching an issue in a rather big app which displays pdf files in IE window.
The issue is that inside javascript code we call 'window.setTimeout( win.focus() ...)' (for the child window), but it doesn't come into focus every time, seems a bit random when it does and does not come into focus.
At present I wrote a much smaller app + javascript to reproduce the issue, but it does not manifest in same way.
Specifically this is the confusing part:
window.setTimeout( function() {win.focus(); win.moveTo( 200 , 200 ); } , 500 , "JavaScript" );
the 'win' does move, but never comes into focus.
Any ideas about why the focus function does not accomplish what I'm trying to do?
Here's the code of my simplified app + html + javascript:
