Hi,

I have a problem with my openbox configuration.
I have these options in my rc.xml file:
<focusNew>yes</focusNew>

and I have this keybind:
<keybind key="C-l">
      <keybind key="f">
        <action name="Execute">
          <command>firefox-bin</command>
        </action>
      </keybind>
</keybind>

under <applications> I have:
<focus>yes</focus>

and this:
<application
name="firefox*"><desktop>1</desktop><raise>yes</raise></application>

.

Everything works fine, when I press the keybind combo, firefox is lunched on
desktop #1, the problem is, it doesn't get focus!
I have to switch manually to desktop #1.

I want it to get focus when it's lunched, is there something I'm missing?

Thanks for the help,
                             Mark Bloch.
