[Resolved] I need to be able to adjust the tab index in an post form.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user wanted to add a Tab index to their form fields.

Solution:

What you can do is wrap you fields in a span and set the tab index on the span.

This way when the tab button is pressed you are tabbed to the appropriate span which also contains the field that you want to tab to.

I have a long and complex CRED form and I need to change the order of tabbing into fields when filling the form. I know that by using tabindex attribute in an input field, I can change the tab order. However, Cred forms fields do not have a provision to insert that attribute. Is there a way to chive that?

Hi Amr,

Please let me know if this workaround helps.

Thanks,
Shane
