I am using the excellent jquery.simplemodal dialog plugin to show a list of items. These items contain hyperlinks. It all works great except that the links in the modal dialog arent coming up as part of the tab order. I have tried setting tabindex explicitly, but for some reason only the input elements are in the tab order - if I tab through the dialog I just cycle through the 3 input elements and dont hit the anchors.
Am I doing something wrong with calling simplemodal plugin?
An example is at http://dev.andrewbucknell.com/basic/demo1.html
The code (with relative paths) for the demo is as follows
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title> SimpleModal Basic Modal Dialog </title>
<meta name='author' content='Eric Martin' />
<meta name='copyright' content='2010 - Eric Martin' />

<!-- IE6 "fix" for the close png image -->
