focus on application

[Shmuper]

Hi there, i received many comments from friends who tested my app saying that they had to click on the game's window in order to be able to play (otherwise it wouldn't not register their inputs). Did i make a mistake somewhere in the html while embedding or is this a known limitation of the Vitalize plugin ?

An easy way to get around this is to have a button they have to click to start the game.

This is a known limitation in all plugins.

Flash, and Java have this problem as well.
It has to do with the way browsers work.

Take Jeff's advice and make a clickable button that starts the game.

You could maybe try a few tricks, though, like using the Window Control Object to grab focus at start, or grab focus to and edit box then loose focus (so thier input doesn't go into the edit box and make beeps at them)
