| I had the same problem but in debian. In gentoo I don't have this issue but in debian, using the same versions of mozilla and fvwm I use in gentoo I couldn't type in mozilla. After I pasted anything in any field I could type in all of them. I figured it was a debian problem. |

| I've seen this with WindowMaker, Kahakai and now Gnome(metacity). All using the same mozilla 1.4 build. |

I had this same exact problem, however I think I found the fix.
If you right click on the desktop and select focus settings, then change it from "focus follows pointer sloppily" to "focus follows pointer" that should fix it. Well at least in my case it did.
I'm currently using a fresh install of gentoo with enlightenment 16.5 and firebird .7
Hopefully this helps out others out there |

I don't have that option. But you pointed me in the correct direction. Using KDE, so went to Control Center/Desktop/Window Behavior/Focus Tab and Section. It was set to 'Click to Focus' and changed it to: Focus Follows Mouse
That seems to have fixed it. Have tried a few things like typing in kedit, kwrite, and in konsole, then copying the items,...... and still have Focus on
whatever doing in Mozilla.
Thanks.
