# To subscribers of the xforms list from Jeff <piercejhsd009@earthlink.net> :
Here's what I have.
I have a button that is a radio like PTT, I have in it's attributes for
teh space bar to be a shortcut. Ok, that works fine, can activate PTT by
either clicking the button, or entering space bar.
But, I also have input objects, and even when I give them focus and am
typing in data, a space bar does not go to the input field, but still
activates the PTT button.
So, if a wiget has the focus, it does not mean that it will get all
input first. Is that true?
