<form>
<input type="text" name="one" tabindex="1">

<input type="text" name="three" tabindex="3">
<input type="text" name="four" tabindex="4" onblur="this.form.elements['one'].focus();">
</form>
Doesn't help if the user hits SHIFT+TAB in the first form element however.

I have 5 controls. 4 on the form and 1 on a link. So there are only 5 "elements" which get the tab. 0, 1, 2, 3 on the form and 4 is the link. I number them explicitly this way. But onkeydown over the 4th one, the link, sends control to the address bar. At that point I cannot capture onkeydown. onkeydown over the link is not captured (fired) when the key is the TAB and the place the cursor goes is the address bar.
