Hi,
I'm trying to get a window (in this case an operator's chat monitor 
window) to pop to the foreground when I say 'go' so that I can get their 
attention.    It works fine in IE.. however, I do not seem to be able to 
get mozilla on linux to pop to the foreground at all.. and can only get 
windows mozilla to pop to the foreground if I don't have it minimized 
(it clicked on another window).

I am using:

<body onload="parent.window.focus();">

I have also tried just:
<body onload="window.focus();">

Any thoughts?  This is tried with Mozilla 1.8a5 as well as 1.7
