the input focus will jump to
the next input on tab, and the tab does not get entered into a field.
Netscape on Solaris has this tabbing behavior for text fields, but
allows you to enter tabs in text areas. I guess your solution would be
workable, though.

Do you enjoy making people ask what you're talking about? What other

That would be nice, too, but a modifier would let you ensure that the
