Hi All,

I have an applet with a tabbed panel where each tab of the panel is a visual
bean. When the alternate tab is selected, I need to set focus to a text
field on the visual bean. I've tried a couple of configurations, including
textField.requestFocus(), but am having no luck. I believe the problem
originates with requestFocus since the field must be visible for request
focus to work. Anyone faced this problem before? TIA
