I am working on an application and include a feature that allows users to hide a window by calling the javascript "focus" method. However, this does not work in Firefox when the user has the "raise or lower windows" setting turned off. Not a big deal, but it seems as if there is no way to detect this via javascript so I can gracefully handle the situation for my users (e.g. send them a message that their browser will not allow that to occur).
