This script performs reliable, cross-browser input autofocus that often can be used simply by dropping it in, with no modifications to the form or HTML body. It refuses to switch focus if it detects that the user has interacted with the form (avoiding a major source of annoyance with autofocus scripts) and correctly handles Firefox tabs opened "in the background", which most autofocus scripts fail on. Official home is on the Lost Souls MUD Grimoire.

I was looking for an easy way to populate a combo box with strings taken from an enumeration, and also to be able to pull out Enum objects from the combo box. After some searching, I found EnumComboBoxModel on the JDesktop website, but was not able to find any code.

Instead I came up with an easier solution that did not require me to define a new Model class, but instead uses javax.swing.DefaultComboBoxModel.

Sorry for the disorganization of the code, but hopefully you get the idea.
