    [FONT= "Arial"][SIZE= "2"]I have been using a site to prepare forms and when filling out the form I use the arrow key to navigate the input fields in the form just like in Microsoft's Excel. For the past several days however when I enter data on this online form the arrow keys scroll the page rather than move from field to field. I have checked and the Scroll Lock key is off and I have also checked the keyboard with Excel and it works correctly in the program, in other words using the arrow keys will move from cell to cell. If I put the scroll lock key on while in Excel it scrolls from page to page like it is supposed to. I have tried looking everywhere for something that might have caused the change but to no avail. I have been using this online form for several years now so I know it has worked before.

    I would appreciate any input.

    Thanks

    Normal method of changing fields in an online forms is to use the tab key. Forms on web pages can also contain code that regulates which keys are to be used & in what order. It is possible that the online form code has changed.
