focus-in-field problem

Hello All,


Traversal on? Focus? Something else? I realize now my understanding of
fields and focus is incomplete. A realization begun when watching
MobGUI support-videos. And brought home when my iPhone app opened up
and the keyboard suddenly appeared.

The problem more specifically.


To search for a word, in Text Field A the user types and hits
"Return", which calls a search-function in the card, and the
search-results appear in clickable Text Field B.

Good so far. Because the insert-cursor is still in Text Field A, and
the user can still type text into it.


Next, user clicks on Text Field B, which calls an image-display script
in the card.

Problem! The insert-cursor is flashing in Text Field A, but the user
can not type text into it.


So, how can I not only fix this problem, but do so in a way that, when
I move the stack to a mobile device, the keyboard won't pop-up?

Thanks.
