+Sometimes it’s useful to switch the browser’s default tabbing behavior (left to right) to the opposite (top to bottom) when your input fields are in a grid layout instead the of the usual single column layout. Having to do this manually is a real pain, especially for large grids; So here is a solution in javascript, using mootools:
+
+```javascript
+window.addEvent('domready', function(){
+ var trs = $$('#mytable tr')
+ var accum = 0
+ trs.each(function(tr, trindex){
+ accum = trindex + 1
+ tr.getChildren().each(function(td, tdindex){
+ td.getChildren('input')[0].tabIndex = accum
+ accum = accum + trs.length
+ })
+ })
+})
+```
