Hi All,

I set up a form on my page and am using tabIndex so that the user can advance on to the next field by just pressing their tab key. That’s all working fine, but then when the user hits the tab key and they advance to the next field, I’d like for the blinking cursor to remain blinking (it just goes away even though I’m targeted on the text field). Is there a fix for that?
