Re: JavaScript Auto Tab (attn: Cyanide_7)

Conrad,
  thanx for the intrest. the reason i did not make the script compatible 
with tabIndex is that the Input object does not have the tabIndex property 
in Netscape as it does in IE5 (IE4 might have it too, but i dont have access 
to that browser). one workaround may be to instead of passing the current 
object from the event handler and having the script find the next element, 
pass the name or index of the element to pass focus as well. its the long 
way around, but the safest i think. take a look at:

and see if it doesn't suit your needs more. - Cyanide_7
