How do I give focus to the embedded browser control? Somehow, in my
application, the browser is activated and displays the page, but it doesn't
have the keyboard focus. It gets focus only after I click on it with the
mouse.

Query it for IOleObject, call DoVerb(OLEIVERB_UIACTIVATE)

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925

Thanks Igor--I was able to implement this call, but it hasn't solved my
problem. I don't know how it happens, but the browser still loses the focus.
I use exactly the same techniques when the embedded window is a listview
rather than web browser, and it works. Any insights about what could be going
on? I'm at my wits end.

Okay, I got it working by trial and error. Apparenlty I was setting focus too
early in the process of displaying the control. I put the focus call now
after calling Navigate, and the focus holds. I wander if there is a better
place yet.

I guess it looks like I'm having a similar problem exception I am dealing
with the Windows Forms wrapper for the WebBrowser control. I'm curious if
this same suggestion would work in my case where I have had problems
regaining focus after it is taken from another window. What I have too look
into now is the proper way to obtain the IOleObject interface from the
Windows Forms WebBrowser control.
