I have problem with a the behavior of the tabkey and gridcontrols. The client wants a user friendly website where the mouse should be use less as possible.
The site consists of 2 gridcontrol and 1 tabcontrol. When the page loads the first row of the gridcontrol must gain focus. The user must pass all the rows with the arrow keys(up and down). The standard behavior of the tabkey in the gridcontrol is to pass to the next row. I want to scroll with the arrowkeys in the grid and the tabkey should pass on to the next control and not to the next row in the grid. Can anybody help me with this issue?
Hi cdw90nl!!
Are you trying to do it with Javascript, then you need to attach an event and trap those events,based on those keys(up down arrow keys) you can change the behavior of the tab and arrow keys.
Hope this will help you
