Set focus on silverlight app

Mar 14, 2008 02:37 PM | LINK
Has anybody got a sample of how to set the initial focus for a page to a silverlight app contained in it? I tried the standard ASP.NET Focus with the
<asp:Silverlight /> control but that didn't work. Thanks in advance.

If you know the ID of the embedded silverlight object, you can do something like:
```
document.getElementById("AgControl1Host").focus();
```
Unfortunately, my javascript-fu is extremely weak, so I don't know if that would work across all supported browsers. It does work in IE7, though.
