    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-4479?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12429759#action_12429759 ] 

Tim Evers commented on RF-4479:
-------------------------------

What needs to happen I think is that the other 2 <input>(or whatever is getting the focus) tags that are getting tabbed to need to have their tab index set to -1 so that they are not tabbed to.

If this is not an acceptable work around then allow access to the tabindex of these inputs so that we can change them ourselves.

It is not user friendly to have to hit the tab key 3 times to get to the next field.

>             Project: RichFaces
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.2
>         Environment: IE 6, and FireFox 2.x, and FireFox 3.x
>            Reporter: Tim Evers

> When tabbing out of a rich:comboBox it takes 3 presses of the tab button before I get to the next input field on my page.
> This behaviour can also be seen on the richfaces demo page.
> http://livedemo.exadel.com/richfaces-demo/richfaces/comboBox.jsf?c=comboBox&tab=usage
> The code I was using was this:
> <h:panelGrid border='0' columns="2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
>                 <h:column>
>                    <s:label for="richAccountType" value="Account type:*"></s:label>
>                 </h:column>
>                 <rich:comboBox
>                     id="richAccountType"
>                     defaultLabel="Please Select..."
>                     suggestionValues="#{AccountDetailsDataBean.accountTypes}"
>                     value="#{AccountMaintenanceController.currentAccount.type}"
>                     directInputSuggestions="true">
>                 </rich:comboBox>
>             </h:panelGrid>
>             <gekko:selectBooleanCheckbox
>                 id="residentialOption"
>                 value="#{AccountMaintenanceController.currentAccount.residential}"
>                 label="Residential"
>                 readonly="#{TenureKeyController.viewMode}" />
> So, on entry to the comboBox I would have to press the tab key 3 times before I ended up on my selectBooleanCheckbox.
> Is there some way we can be given control of this? Or fix it so that tab will go to the next component on the form?
