To create complex, structured applications in Flash, use components with screens. Components are especially useful with forms to create structured applications that show data and enable nonlinear user interactivity. For example, use forms to populate a container component.
To create custom navigation between components, use the Focus Manager when you use components with screens. The Focus Manager specifies the order in which components receive focus when a user presses the Tab key to navigate in an application. For example, customize a form application so that a user can press Tab to navigate fields and press Return (Macintosh) or Enter (Windows) to submit the form.
For information on the Focus Manager, see Creating custom focus navigation and "FocusManager class" in ActionScript 2.0 Components Language Reference.
You can also use the Accessibility panel to create a tab order. For more information, see "Viewing and creating tab order and reading order" in Using Flash.
