Bug in focus manager?

Hi,

Just noticed this in Focus Manager?
        browserMode = Capabilities.playerType == "ActiveX" && !popup;
        desktopMode = Capabilities.playerType == "Desktop" && !popup;

Shouldn't that be:
        browserMode = (Capabilities.playerType == "ActiveX" || Capabilities.playerType == "plugin") && !popup;
        desktopMode = Capabilities.playerType == "Desktop" && !popup;

Thanks,
Justin

Well, not as of IE8.  Only IE8 and earlier supported focus cycling out of
the SWF, to the Browser's address bar and back into the SWF.  BrowserMode
is the flag that allows focus to leave and return to the SWF.  I haven't
checked to see if any other browsers now allow that.
