Re: [WSG] Tabindex tags not necessary here?

2004-07-30 Thread Kay Smoljak
It's not difficult to test... just try navigating your site/filling
out your form and see what happens. For a  site that really needs to
set the tabindex, check out the new Australian white pages redesign...
http://www.whitepages.com.au - try searching for a phone number using
only the keyboard. Ick.

[WSG] Tabindex tags not necessary here?

2004-07-29 Thread John Britsios



Dear all,

I have a question: Doesn't my web site pages here http://www.webnauts.net have a logical 
navigation structure,thereforeI do need to use the "Tabindex" 
tags?I ask, because someone advised me against the use of tab indexing - 
using it only if the natural ordering is misleading. Thanks in advance for 
your kind support.

I think that if the default tab order of the page is logical you don't
need to use tabindex.
