tabbing through controls

i've given al my controls an ascending tabindex.

i gave the tabindex-property of the controls i do not want to tab through the value "-1"

this works, but at a certain tab-press the cursor jumps to my adress-bar (internet explorer), can i disable this too?

greetz,

I don't think its possible, but if you find an answer, let me know...

It should happen that way, because the browser receives the event before the document, so malicious javascript couldn't keep you from reaching the address bar.

Just to follow up, its possible in IE4+ , but Netscape navigators and probably all other browsers won't allow you to caputre Tab keypresses.

VB Code:

'put this in the Page_PreRender
MyButton.Attributes.Add("onKeyDown","return checkForTab(this);")
 
If (myButton.Visible And Not Me.Page.IsClientScriptBlockRegistered("checkForTab")) Then
        Me.Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock ("CESITabAutopostback", "<script>function checkForTab(obj) {if(event.keyCode == 9) return false;}</script>")
