tab order not working

Hi,

I've added about 5 custom fields in the Quote form and defined a tab order
using the tabIndex property for all the fields in the form.

However, while this order works for one section, its not working for the
other section....i checked the source(through view source) on the crm form
and realised that crm is enforcing its own tab order(which is quite
haphazard!) despite the javascript code written on form load...

Any solutions....please help!!

Best option is to work within CRM's constraints. Use sections to set
your tab order. For instance, if you want the tab order to go left
right then what you need to do is create a section but don't show it
(that's all within the properties of the section). Then you just have
a section for every two fields and you only show the top section. This
way you get the tab order you want and no one is the wiser. Yeah, it's
a bit of work but it gets the job done.

Hope this helps,
