Could you give me an example of how I would change the field tab index using JQuery? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/tab-index-when-there-are-two-columns#post-52173 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 19:06:24 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 52173@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Well, the fields are tabbing in the order you put them in the editor. If you're using the ready classes, it only floats the fields to create "faux" columns.</p> <p>You can re-order your fields in the form editor so the tabindex works the way you want or you can use JQuery to change the field tabindex attributes if you're not dealing with a large form. Not ideal I'm sure, but that's how it works. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/tab-index-when-there-are-two-columns#post-52171 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 18:29:48 +0000 Sargent 52171@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I followed the instructions of another thread and I was able to create two columns out of my form, which is great, but I would like the tab index to work differently. Right now the tabbing goes straight down and instead I would like it to go across. </p>
