I'm using IE 6.0 with installed JRE6.0b97.
When HTML page contains an applet and some HTML controls applet doesn't recieve focus when I pressing TAB repeatedly.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1) load TestApplet from the description
2) click mouse in the first text field ("Mickey")
3) press TAB several times
4) if applet's textfield ("Type me") don't obtain focus the bug reproduced.
5) I noticed that after the last component in the page the focus goes to address line and stays there if even I press TAB.
Now how to avoid this issue.
1) load TestApplet from the description
2) click mouse in the first text("Type me") or on button("Push me") in applet.
3) press TAB several times
4) now applet can obtains focus.
5) I noticed that after the last component in the page the focus goes to address line and returns to the first component if I press TAB.
