(browser) focus hocus pocus broke us

[Mike Kerner]

How do we take focus away from the browser widget?

I am loading PDF's into the browser widget.  At that point, all key presses
get eaten up by the widget (e.g. arrows make the widget scroll), even if a
field has the insertion point.
Scripting the widget to intercept those events doesn't work.
"focus on nothing" doesn't take the focus away.
"click at the loc of" doesn't do it.
the browser document load events don't seem to fire for PDF's

Sugestions, please.
