How do you mean? I think that the only way to move between fields is by tabbing. You can control the tab order with the "tabindex" attribute.
Simple example to show both of the above.
<html>
<body>
Name: <input type="textbox" name="entername" tabindex=1>
Address: <input type="textbox" name="enteraddr" tabindex=3>
Phone: <input type="textbox" name="enterphone" tabindex=2>
<script>
entername.focus()
</script>
</body>
</html>HTH
