Suggestion for CF v6: Add Tabindex capability

How to add tabindex functionality to ChronoForms v6 elements.

Overview

The tabindex attribute can be added to form fields, but it may not work on checkboxes due to a CSS rule in the template.
Add the tabindex attribute in the Advanced settings for each field. If checkboxes are not receiving focus, check your template's CSS for a rule that hides elements with the class 'hidden' and disable it.

Thank you for making such a great component for Joomla.
It would be nice to have tabindex capability for forms made by CF v6.

Hi omidhz,

Glad you like it!🙂

You can add any extra attributes under the Advanced > Extra attributes box:


tabindex:1

This is working nicely with text fields, but it didn't work with single Check box.
I have 6 text fields and 2 single checkbox. The tabindex does not focus on checkboxes.
Is there a way to fix this?

Hi omidhz,

If your template has a rule like this:


.hidden{display: none;}

Then its why the checkboxes tabindex is not working, this rule must be disabled.
