Description ryan thiessen 2004-06-09 20:14:47 UTC 
To reproduce:  open a website that contains a <meta http-equiv="refresh"> tag,
then open a new tab to any page that has a form input.  Start typing in the form
and when the orginal form refreshes the window focus will shift away from your
current textarea or input box or whatever.

What I expect to happen:  I expect the background tab to refresh but the cursor
focus to remain on the open tab and not interrupt my typing.

Additional information:  This behaviour does not occur in the FireFox or Mozilla
Suite.
