I created a Text control in a composite, but when I press the Tab button , instead of adding a '\t' to the text, it just changed focus to the next control.How can I fix this problem ?
Thanks!

Hi.

I'm not entirely sure you can.
The only solution I could think of is to use ClientScripting (available
in the Incubator) to listen to KeyDown events on the Text fields and in
case of pressing a TAB key, set the events doit flag to false and
programmatically change the value of the Text field to insert a tab
character on the current selection. As I said, I'm not 100% sure it will
work, but it's well worth a try.

Greetings,
Tim
