Re: Shift + Tab to go back into the previous field does not work

Maybe it works for you Robert (and many others).

But for Peter, Nishka and me, it doesn't (I'm using IE7 U.S. and XP Pro U.S.).

After installing IE7, Shift+Tab stopped working.
Tab works normally but when I press Shift+Tab *nothing happens* (this
includes all weblinks and webforms in **all webpages**).

And I don't believe it's from the website particular construction!
Unless all websites in the world, changed their code construction after I
installed IE7!

So... the problem remains.
Shift+Tab doesn't seem to work in ALL IE7 equipped PCs (caused by some
particular reason).

Try ALT + Left Arrow.

Then the most likely explanation will be that you have some common factor
in your environments which is causing the problem. E.g. one known such
factor is nVidia software which interferes in various ways, especially when
you using keyboard modifiers when clicking links.

Re: Shift + Tab to go back into the previous field does not work

Shift tab works in explorer but not in internet explorer. but if i hold down
a bit longer it works but too fast for me to stop at a specific field.
it worked fine about a month ago before i had to re-install xp. after
re-installation of windows and internet explorer, this problem has occured.
any suggestions?

The same ones that I gave to the poster I originally replied to
(which you should have referred to when posting your Me too!): ; }

E.g. have you tried testing in No Add-ons mode?
Run... iexplore.exe -nohome -extoff

Perhaps your symptom will change if you install IE8b1? <eg>


Good luck
