Hi people, I am using Redhat7.1 and KDE 2.1.2. I use Mozilla as my internet browser and I enjoy surfing the net with it except for one thing, when I open several browser windows for quick surfing everytime I am concentrating on one window and the other windows finish loading the finished ones will pop up to the front of the existing window which I am concentrating on and this I find annoying. Is there a way to configure this setting? If yes how can I do that? Thanks for any guidance. Alimin

Thanks Dave, I never thought the problem was as simple as setting configuration for KDE.

The particular behavior has been driving my nutty as well. I asked the same question on one of the Mozilla newsgroups and the answer was that was a bug that has not been corrected. Cheers Zeph

With FVWM-2, you can edit your ~/.fvwm2rc file to accomplish the same.

I have really. I use Window Manager as opposed to KDE and the window focus is set to be controlled by mouse position. Mozilla however still overrides this. I used to use fvwm2 with the same setting and the same problem. Oh well hopefully the Mozilla team will fix the but soon. Many Thanks Zeph

Doh, the focus was not set to sloppy. Problems seems to have gone. Many Thanks Zeph
