A dumb question: Exactly how does tabbing work in an ASP.NET form in the
browser? Does it work the same was as a Windows Forms form does?
I have a rather complicated ASP form (that consists of HTML tables, ASP text
boxes, drop downs, data grids, etc)... and no matter how I set the TAB
indexes, it never seems to work the way I want it to - sometimes tabbing all
over the place!
What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any input...

You set the tabindex property which gets rendered as a tabindex attribute of
the html element.
<asp:textbox tabindex=3 ...>
becomes
<input type="Textbox" tabindex=3 ... >
You probably already knew this, but there's nothing else really to know...
you might wanna check out: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/inte...#adef-tabindex
also keep in mind that other elements in the browser (like the brower
buttons themeselves) are going to participate in the tabbing experience
which is different that in winforms..

Playing with Prothon today, I am fascinated by the idea of eliminating

there is to having classes. Is all this complexity unecessary?
Here is an example of a Python class with all three types of methods

Hi
I'm trying to prevent users from moving between different records in
forms in Access 2000.
I've turned off the record selectors and disabled the mouse wheel.
I've now found that you can reach other records by tabbing through all
the controls on the forms.

Tabbing from the first control on a form always sends me to IE's Address Bar
instead of the next control, no matter how I set the TabIndex property for
the controls. Why is this happening?
For example, I have a simple login screen with 2 textboxes (Login ID and
Password) and 2
buttons (Login and Cancel). I've set the TabIndex Property of each control,
starting at 0.
When I enter a login id and then press Tab, the focus goes to IE's...

I'm in dire straits. I'm converting part of a product into VB.NET, but
still need to access forms written in VB 6.0. I've got just about
everyting working, but the tabbing on the form. The form captures the
tab key when it's pressed, but fails to go through the series of
controls. Help!

I've got a odd thing happening when tabbing through my form. everything is
fine as long as I only tab through the fields, but if I skip 10 fields and
click in a field, enter data then hit tab it will just to the control AFTER
the last control I TABBED to.
This doesn't make sense to me. Does a form keep track of tab index? Do I
need to set this index somewhere when clicking on a field?
Thanks for any help!

Hi
I have a DataGrid with some hidden columns and also some read Only and some
ComboBox Columns.
Sandard Tabbing through the Datagrid sees the focus go to the hidden columns
requiring further Tabbing to get to the desired column but it works fine
stopping correctly on the ComboBox column.
I have built a routine to test whether the use is Tabbing forward or back
(Shift Tab) by looking at the last location, not by trapping the Keys. If

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
