[webkit-dev] Hi All (Windows WebKit through COM, focus issue)

[Kim, ingee]

I suffered similar situation few days ago.
I wish I could help you.

"WebKit Windows port" calls SetCapture() in 
WM_LBUTTONDOWN handler of WebViewWndProc().
If you call ReleaseCapture() in proper position, I think, 
you might solve your problem.

I used r39476 of "WebKit Windows port". 
And in that revision, the position of ReleaseCapture() call was 
somewhat wrong. I moved ReleaseCapture() call to the very
first line of WM_LBUTTONUP handler and solved my problem.

Good Luck~
