Changing tab button behaviour

    I am using gravity forms for both my member sign up and for my "tell a friend" form on the bottom of my website in a widget section. When I am using the "Tab" button to move down the sign up page fields, the cursor jumps between the sign up form fields and the footer "tell a friend" fields. Can you tell me how to make it stop jumping between the forms.

    My website is http://www.freeclassifiedproducts.com.

    Thanks.

  2. Sure, if you view the source on your multi-page form, you'll see that the last input (submit button) has a tab index of 17. You want to start the tabindex on your footer form at some number higher than that so the tab doesn't jump between forms.

    Since you're using a widget for the footer form, it's easy to set the starting tabindex number. It's an option in the widget settings. Just set the "tab index start" value to 18 or higher if you want and it should all tab correctly without jumping between forms.
