set focus on a <tr>

Hi
I am trying to write a script that enables users to move alongside rows within a table using controll – arrows (key down/key up) and highlight each row as it moves. I have a javascript function that captures the ‘onkeydown’ event on the row and highlights the next row But the focus doesn’ t seem to move to the next row -when I click on the ‘key down’.
Does anyone know how I can set the focus on the row?

@David_HarrisonJan 20.2004 — As far as I know, you cannot set focus to a table row. You can set focus to form fields and pop-up windows but not table rows.

I said, "as far as I know", because I have learnt that when I say "you can't" pyro undoubtedly comes along and proves otherwise. In this case I'm 99.99% sure that you can't though.
