Make global template variable counter

Hi Skrol !!

How do you do, if you want to make a counter to use in <code>tabindex</code> of html elements ?

I think something like this

In php file declare a variable named: <code>$tabindex = 0</code>
In tpl file put in every html tag, for example in SELECT tag:

<code><select name="sel" id="sel" tabindex="[onshow.tabindex;ope=add:1]"></code>

So if, i have 50 form elements and change the orders of element, the tabindex properties it will be automatic.

I thinking to execute a custom function and do $tabindex++; and return the value, but i dont know if this is the best practice.

Thanks a lot !!!

You can do it using an onformat function.
Here is the code I would use (not tested) :
