We are facing an unique problem in forms9i.
When values are entered in a text item, and after entering the first character, the first character gets highlighted and because of this on pressing any key the first character gets overwritten/deleted.
Once the error occurs it is easily reproduced within that session. However when you exit from the session the error will not occur predictably within the next session.
Even after the page/html/form is loaded completely this is happening.
It seems that the focus goes somewhere else and comes back when the first character has been typed.
What could be the causes for losing the focus?
Whether session settings will have any impact? or else any property settings or firing of a trigger after entering the first character?.
Please help as this is very very urgent.
Thanks in advance.

This pretty much explains the problem. The set_item_property or set_item_instance_property built-in used in when-validate-item trigger would set the focus to other items. When the focus sets back to this field, it automatically highlights the text item.
If you use a go_item built-in at the end of the when-validate-item trigger, it should solve the problem.
