Ording Text fields with Focus()

[TheBuzz]

I have a flash form that has about 20 text fields and they are completely out of order when I tab through them. I noticed if I start from the bottom they are mostly in order going backward, but thats besides the point. My form is inside a rather large MC. And I have been messing with focus, to try and put them in order when the Tab key is pressed.

I have tried this lately, on top of the components themselves.

PHP Code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
      if(Key.isDown(Key.TAB)) {
             _parent.Textname.setFocus(_parent.Textname1)
      }
} 


But this doesn't seem to work. If anyone has any suggestions they would be appreciated.

Thanks, Buzz

You can use...

TextField.tabIndex = number;

That should do the trick. Flash will use this as priority over any swf structures you have.

Thanks a million,
