Hi, I've been playing with Flex for a bit and I have been trying to get key presses to work, after about eight hours of grabbing what I can from tutorials I have realised my problem all along was the focus, I have since added in a click event to apply focus but I would like it to do it on load, is this possible?
Thanks for any help, Wolfy87.
