Setting Focus on the Text Area

Is there a way to, if the Xinha component is tabbed (so onFocus really), set the cursor directly into the text area rather than have it select the whole component? It's in IE; I'm not sure about the current behaviour in FireFox. This allows users to just tab through components rather than need to rely on the mouse.

Thanks!

could someone reply to this please, thanks!  I am another user with the same problem, my clients are complaining that they cannot tab thru my form.

Re: Setting Focus on the Text Area

since xinha is an iframe the only way I can think of would be to capture the user pressing tab and then change the focus to the element with either the next highest tabIndex, or the next element in the form if one isn't set

It's impossible to activate the editor in any other way than clicking in the iframe
