    when i post, i write the title, and then press the tab to go to the message box. and then if a have made a mistake in the title i try pressing shift + tab, usual habbit while filling online forms, but it dose not work!

    then agian i hold the mouse and go to the title,

    i know this is no big deal, but then if you can solve this, it will be very much helpful.

    Well, to put it simply:

    pressing tab usually takes you to the next form field, but when you use shift+tab, it takes you back one field, instead of forward...

    yep, a simple keyboard-shortcut like this is a much better way to navigate thriugh a browser page, rather than switrching between the mouse and the keyboard..unfortunately this a quite hard to implement but not impossible.. :D

    i don't think this should be hard, i don't know about vbulitten, but then i have seen in some forums, the shift+tab works!
    and it always happens, once you start writing the message text, you want to change the title, perhaps this small little fix, can help a lot of us,

    Woow! this is great.. :D if you don't mind
    any hints on how do you do it? i think of some function using PHP, but as far as i know, navigating through forms on a website is controlled by the browser-apps.. :p, or did you do this by using client-side scripting?
    my knowledge are to shallow..hehe..
