Create form controls inline
 

If you want visitors to your Web site to be able to use the TAB key to move through and select the form controls (form control: On a Web site, an individual box or button with which you enter information on an electronic form.) on your Web site, you can create the form controls inline. Form controls are available only if you are working on a Web publication.

  1. Insert a text box in the location where you want to add form controls.

    ShowHow?

    1. On the Objects toolbar, click Text box Button image.
    2. In your publication, point to where you want one corner of the text to appear, and then drag diagonally until you have the text box size you want.
  2. Click in the text box to get a cursor.
  3. On the Objects toolbar, click Form Control Button image, and then click the form control that you want.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have inserted all of the form controls that you want.

    You can insert form controls horizontally on the same line, or you can press ENTER after inserting each form control to arrange the form controls vertically.

Note  To test your form controls, click Web Page Preview on the File menu. You should be able to use the TAB key to move through the form controls in the order in which they were inserted. Press the arrow keys to move through groups of option buttons.
