testcase for reload / focus (704 bytes, text/html)

Description Marius Andreiana 2002-07-11 11:57:25 UTC 
If you leave a tab/window (1) which refreshes and browse in another 
tab/window (2), when (1) refreshes it takes away the focus from what you
were doing ( tab (2) or location bar ) and moves it to tab (1)

it shouldn't take the focus away from what you're doing now.

note: Don't know if it happens with a meta refresh tag, I have it here with
a js function

setTimeout('reload();', 3000) );

reload() does document.location.href=...

I'll attach the html file.
