    Hi,

    I have noticed the same navigation problem within the browser of a file
    selector (e.g., fbrowse DEMO) on a SUN Ultra 60 machine with Solaris 7
    and XForms 0.89. I tried trapping the events generated by the file
    selector browser by installing a preemptive handler for the file
    selector browser. While the up/down arrow keys are pressed an FL_LEAVE
    event seems to get generated all of a sudden at random and a return to
    the application takes place. I do not know if this gives a clue to the
    problem.

    On another functionality, is there is a way to hide the "." and ".."
    Directory listing from the browser ?
