    Default Javascript and these forums

    There's an onMouseOver handler in the code for the text fields on the post/edit post pages. The handler is set to shift focus to the text field when the mouse moves over it. It's a little annoying, since the focus() function seems to move the cursor to the very top of the field as well as set the focus. Short of disabling JavaScript on my machine, is there any way to disable this?

    Thanks.

    I've noticed it too. But never did anything about it. It can be a bigger issue when the mouse is over the Message Box adn you're trying to edit it, since it will move the mouse's position in the Message Box. I don't think there's a control panel means for turning it off, I can look at the source to see what's involved in changing it there. Tho, I've mentioned before that I'm loathe to change the source code, since I have no desire to keep up with the changes through upgrades and such.
