hi,

I have an applet with a JTextArea and I would like the keyboard focus to
be in that JTextArea as soon as the applet is loaded (so that the user
can immediately start typing).



textarea.requestFocusInWindow()
1) put this in start(), or

this doesn't seem to work.

2) add it to a timer, setRepeats(false), 150ms should do

This works great, thanks a lot!

greetings,
