Thumbs up Web form navigation

I can't remember where I picked this up from and also when you install windows XP it tells you.
I'm sure this is common knowledge, but here it is anyway.(for the newbies)
(I was born not knowing etc.......)

When ordering those New parts from you favourite internet store or loading up your Credit card with new gadgets, At some stage your gonna fill out the Web form for your details such as name, address, credit card number, next of kin, colour of shorts etc.

Navigate down the form with the "Tab" key instead of moving your hand from the keyboard to the mouse backwards and forwards, clicking the mouse pointer into each individual box or window, coz at the end of the day you just wanna "Place that order"

And if you make a mistake, like filling the box full of capitals ,
Hold "shift" and "Tab" back up the form to correct it.( I got that bit from a member here..Thanks RJ).

HTH as well

Thumbs up

Nice one GDM It's new to me
that's a good one. There must be hundreds of little tips like that around.
Hope if more members have the time they could post too.This part of the forum seem's to be left out.
