Did you enable tabChildren on the dynamically displayed movieclip? myClip.tabChildren = true ?

tabChildren : Boolean
Determines whether the children of the object are tab enabled.

tabEnabled : Boolean
Specifies whether this object is in the tab order.

I am trying to ensure all the buttons in my movie are accessible with the keyboard only and have run into a problem where several buttons within a movie clip that is dynamically displayed are not being highlighted by the tab.

Basically I have 2 buttons on screen that are placed via the timeline. And I dynamically display a game over panel that has a "Submit" button and a "Play Again" button within it. I have used the accessibility properties panel to assign a tab order to these 2 buttons. However when the panel is displayed these 2 buttons do not highlight when the tab key is repeatedly pressed. It just highlights the other 2 buttons, alternating the highlight between the 2.

Anyone any insight into why these buttons are not highlighting? Do I need to use some action script after the panel has been displayed to set the accessibility?

Btw the game is being published as Flash 6 Action Script 1.

Thanks

Paul
