html - Can I ignore some website element when navigating using the tab key?

Question

As question really. I have an input box on my page that I would like to ignore when navigating using the keyboard tab key.

I'm using this input box as a simple bot honeytrap and positioning it off the page, so at the moment when using the tab key, it looks to the user as though nothing has focus when they tab to this element.

Answer 1

You can set the tabindex="-1" on this element so it's ignored in the tab order. 0 tells the browser to figure out the tab order on it's own, -1 tells the browser to ignore it.
