Hi kai,
Thank you for using Microsoft Newsgroup Service. Based on your description,
you have some problem with setting the tabindex for the web controls on the
ASP.NET web page. Is my understanding correct.
In asp.net web page, you can set all the controls' tabindex attribute in
the property window, nomatter it's a ASP.NET server control or a html
control. However, since in the web page, some element is unable to get
focus such as text(lable), so you may sometimes feel they are not set focus
as the tabIndex they've been set. Also, I've tested use a simple
aspx page to set tabindex for both server controls and html controls, you
may try out this page to see whether it works:
------------------aspx page--------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>TabIndex</title>
<meta name="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 7.1">
<meta name="CODE_LANGUAGE" Content="C#">
<meta name="vs_defaultClientScript" content="JavaScript">
<meta name="vs_targetSchema"

<body>
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
<table width="600" align="center">
<tr>
<td>
<asp:TextBox id="TextBox1" tabIndex="1"
runat="server"></asp:TextBox></td>
<td>
<asp:Button id="Button1" tabIndex="5" runat="server"
Text="Button"></asp:Button></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<asp:ImageButton id="ImageButton1" tabIndex="2"
runat="server"></asp:ImageButton></td>

<asp:DropDownList id="DropDownList1" tabIndex="6" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Value="aaa" Selected="True">aaa</asp:ListItem>

</asp:DropDownList></td>
</tr>

</asp:ListBox></td>
<td>
<asp:CheckBox id="CheckBox1" tabIndex="7" runat="server"
Text="CheckItem"></asp:CheckBox></td>
</tr>
<tr>

</table>
