Hello Jerry,

As for preventing imagebutton(or other page element) from accepting tab
focus, a simply way is to set Control's TabIndex as "-1", e.g.

<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton2" runat="server" TabIndex="-1"
ImageUrl="...."  />

the above control will be rendered as the following html source:

<input type="image" name="ImageButton2" id="ImageButton2" tabindex="-1"
src="...." />

I've tested it on my side and it works in both IE7 and FF2.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
