Focus under Win2k does not work correctly

Hi,

we've found out that the focus does not work correctly under Windows 2000 in

Seamless Mode (App is a Windows Application running on Windows Terminal Server

2003), the same application has no problems under Windows XP, Apple Macintosh

and Linux.

Example: The application has a button which pop's up a small calendar window

giving that window focus. In Tarantella under Win2k however you just see the

window popping up shortly and then going in the background. As the window is in

the background and you can't get the window back and you also cannot work

further in that application as the rest is inactive.

Only way is to do a right-click on the application in the taskbar, which brings

the window in the foreground again. What makes this problem even harder to

analyze is, that it sometimes even works correctly (around 3 of 10 times).

We've mostly recognized this with modal windows. The native client does not have

this problem, however as far as I know it does not support seamless mode.

2. The second problem we got is, that if you click with the mouse into the

initializing Window while the application starts up after you have clicked on an

application Link in SGD (I mean the Pre-Login window of Windows which shortly

shows up just before the Login Process begins),

the application is not started seamlessly but is started within that window and

you have no chance but closing an restarting the application to get it in

seamless mode. This is seen on all Client Operating Systems by us and not only

Windows 2000.

The Client runs:

Windows 2000 SP4 all updates installed

Java: 1.5.0-5

Browser: IE6.0 and Firefox 1.0.7

Server: Windows 2003 Terminal Server (all updates installed)

Tarantella: 4.20.909

I hope that someone has at least a workaround.

Regards

Carsten

I have organized some testcases attached are 3 Test Programs which work

nice natively but got these problems under Tarantella under every Windows

Operating System (the error is not Windows 2000 as I previously mentioned but

also occurs on Windows XP).

The interesting thing is that the Test Program made with .NET does not show this

problem.

Could someone please test these and tell if this error is reproducible on your

systems as well ?

Run these Testprograms natively, they show no misbehavior.

Execute this from a SGD Webtop Session in Seamless Mode, see that

the Modal window is not modal but shifts into the background on every 2 -3 click.
