tabIndex-ing inside scrollPane? 1

[theotrain]

i have a bunch of input textfields inside a scrollPane, and i need the user to be able to tab from one field to the next. it seems whatever I do with 'tabIndex' doesnt work... when i run the movie and click in a textField, then press tab it seems to transfer focus to the scrollPane. (i get the same result if i dont specify any tabIndexes)

setting the scrollPane.tabEnabled to false doesnt do any good either. Ive used tabIndex before with no problems when all my textfields were in the _root timeline but now i dont know how to get them to work. Any clues??? thanks...

Sort of contradictory links, but you'll find an answer...

you rock oldnewbie.

BTW the scottmanning solution is the way to go.

scrollPaneName.tabChildren=true;

thats all you have to do!
