Chipp,
I clicked on: http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altsqlite/SQLiteDemo.rev
and it opened a page of code, probably not what you intended.
Also, philosophically, one should not have to install a plugin to get 
proper cursor behavior.
Rev. should fix this.

Subject: Re: Cursor issues in Tiger

   Paul, 
 
  I too have seen this, but not only in Tiger, but Panther and even 
WinXP. The cursor just seems to get stuck after leaving an editable 
text fld. I think Jerry Daniels has a bug report on this. 
 
 My fix is to 'start using stack "altCursorLib"' 
 
  The lastest version of altCursorLib can be found in the SQLite Demo 
stack at: 
 http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/altSQLiteCover/default.htm 
 
 or you can just type in the message box: 
 go URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altsqlite/SQLiteDemo.rev" 
 
  While you're there, you might want to spend 5 minutes and do a 
walk-thru of the demo (though it's not tested yet on Tiger). 
 
 best, 
 
 Chipp
