Form Tab order

D

Dave

I have created a form with a table inside to layout my fields. I have set
the tab order but the form does not follow the settings. This is an asp
page.

Is this because of the table inside the form, if so is there a workaround or
is there a better way to layout a form?

Thanks

Dave

It is on a secure server on the intranet.

Thanks for the responses. The page is 500 lines. I can send a single
entry.

I created a form and inside the form a created a table 6 columns wide and in
there all over the page I have test fields. Is this a bad thing?

<input type="radio" name="Track" value="Yes" tabindex="17">

Shouldn't be a problem unless you have duplicate tabindex numbers, and all of the form fields are
within the table which is surrounded by a single pair of form tags.

If I understand you correctly I should do this:

<form><input type="radio" name="Track1" value="Yes" tabindex="1"></form>
<form><input type="radio" name="Track2" value="Yes" tabindex="2"></form>

within each table cell

Not this:

<form><input type="radio" name="Track1" value="Yes" tabindex="1">
<input type="radio" name="Track2" value="Yes" tabindex="2"></form>

Thanks for the responses.

No.

<form>
<table>
rows, columns, form fields
</table>
</form>
