OK I hope I am understanding you correctly.

You want to make flash go to the next input text box when the user presses the tab key?

OK here is what you do. Give your input text boxes an instance name; in this case I used input1 for the first text box and input2 for the next text box.

Here is the code...

Code: Select all

input1.tabIndex  = 1;
input2.tabIndex  = 2;

That should do it. Let me know if there are any other problems.
