Hello

combo doesn't provide a public method to set tabindex. But you can try to use the following approach:

combo.DOMelem_input.tabIndex = ...; 

Where combo is combo object

I am using it like

<script>
                var y=new dhtmlXCombo("combo_zone_angebotstext","angebotstext",310);
                y.setComboText("<?=$angebotstext;?>");
                y.setComboValue("<?=$angebotstext;?>");
                y.loadXML("Angebotstext.xml");
                y.enableFilteringMode(true)
</script>

<div id="combo_zone_angebotstext" style="width: 310px;"></div>

So where should i took this stuff?

var y=new dhtmlXCombo("combo_zone_angebotstext","angebotstext",310);

y.DOMelem_input.tabIndex = tab_index_here;

This works!

Thank you guy.
It is an important feature, isn't it?
Perhaps you should involve it to the API.
