I notice that the input focus -- often but not always -- goes to
Netsurf when I click on a link in an email that opens a web page.
This was not the case until fairly recently*. The input focus always
used to remain with the email window.
Is this the result of a deliberate change in Netsurf, or is it just a
fluke of some sort?
Not a serious problem, just that I have to consciously change some of
my habitual keystrokes in a repetitive chore that I do.
(* I first noticed the different input-focus behaviour with Netsurf
#4001 and now #4085. In my previous versions (#3955 and back),
Netsurf did not take the input focus till I explicitly clicked in its
window. Throughout this period, my email software has had no update.)
Using Ro 5.23 on ArmX6, Ro 5.22 on Armini (Beagle).

Well, I just clicked on the Archive URL in Jim's message, the Archive
site appeared, and the input focus stayed in MPro's window. ARMX6,
same OS, and from the headers, Jim is using MPro too.
Something else in Jim's setup?
Best wishes,
Peter.

It happens here as Jim described (using the Archive url), with ROS
5.23 (19 Jan 17). The difference is that the mail reader is Pluto.
Doesn't appear to be Jim specific.

Mine is 5.23 (2016-June-29). (I should get round to the upgrade!)

I confess to not having noted this as a change but I can confirm that as
of now (using Netsurf #4085) the behaviour here is as Jim has described.
A click on the Archive magazine link in the Pluto article viewer which
has the input focus opens the web page in Netsurf and the Netsurf window
gains the input focus.

Just tried it again here. MPro window with yellow top-bar and NetSurf
window with grey bar. Same NetSurf build. Odd.
Best wishes,

Still using Netsurf 3.3 here, and the same effect...

I've just been experimenting. BBxM, RO 5.23 (12 Apr 17), MPRO 7.08,
NS CI #4085. Some links don't take the input focus, some do. At the
moment it's just an observation; I haven't looked at the email source
to see if I can discern any difference. For any given link, I think
the result has been consistent.
