Did something change at the bottom of the page when you enter your Username/Password? You used to type your username, [tab], password. Now, that tab brings you to the "To get an account, click here" link. So, now you need to type username , [tab][tab], password.
Not a big deal, just a little strange. Did that extra link move? If so, can it be moved somewhere else?
Thanks! |

Glad I'm not the only one to hit the post button only to get an error message that my password is in error.
Is there anyway to adjust the programming so that hitting the tab key once when the cursor is in the "user name" box will get you to the "password" box rather than the new account link? |

Looks like the tab order changed. I also noticed this when they changed the style sheets for the updated colors.
I used to do: username <tab> pwd <tab><tab><space>
and submit the form. but now, 'click here' is second in that tab order. |

I put a negative tab index on the "click here" link. Try tabbing in this topic now. (This only affects MSIE users) |

Ooooh....now when you tab from the "Post" field, it brings you to the "Options" field, instead of the Username field.
(Although the username-password issue is now better!) |

Yeah, initial problem is fixed, but new one exists. After I am done typing in the message box I usually just tab out to the username field. But, it just jumps me right to "Enable HTML" checkbox. If you keep going trying to get to username, you end up all the way back up top of the page going through the navigation bar stuff. |

Post <tab> 'click here' <tab> 'options check boxes' <tab> 'Action:' buttons <tab> 'Nirwana'
This is in Firefox on WinXP.
I can never tab to the username and password boxes. |

I'm still looking into this tabIndex situation and have for now removed them and the "click here" link that began the offending issue. |

<tab> access was turned on.
Now, without the 'click here' it's working fine again. |
