Issue with JSF rich:tabPanel
640901Jun 2 2009 — edited Jun 2 2009I had already posted the same query on [jboss forums|http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=156388] and haven't got any helpful response. May be number of richfaces users do follow Sun's forum rather than JBoss'.
My problem goes here:
My page consists of three tabs, with multiple tabs nested in each of them. I am using 'Ajax' type tab switch. Thanks to Richfaces! Everything works well with incredible performance.
Now the problem being, some users would like to work on the application by using only keyboard, and I am not able to capture or focus on the tab labels by pressing 'Tab' key on the keyboard. During the process('Tab' key press on keyboard), it focuses one by one on all the header links above the tabbed panel, and then directly jumps to focus on the active tab content.
Is there a solution to fix this issue, so that the focus also appears on the tab labels. I have tried setting action attribute to the rich:tab, but that didn't help solve the problem. Any help on resolving this issue is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
