Tabbing on keyboard skips over date & select fields in Safari
How can I fix this? Thank you.

Does it happen everywhere or just on some pages?
From what I remember, people that make pages can code what order the tab works in, so if it's just one page it may be an error in the coding of whomever made that page.
Hello,
I don't know for certain, but tabbing works fine in Chrome on PC. In Safari is where it fails.
If it's working in one browser and not another then it's possibly how the page is coded. Or could be something not quite right with the browser (depends on who's blaming whom)
You could fill out feedback to Apple, letting them know there's an issue but I wouldn't exactly hold my breath. You could also tell the site that there's an issue with mobile safari. Again, they may or may not consider it a priority.

Usually finding a work around is the easiest and fastest solution. Users kinda get caught in between two goliaths in situations like this.
Thank you.
You're welcome. Good luck.
Have you tried the same on the OS X version of Safari? IIRC it has extra settings on how the tab navigates form fields. These settings may be not exposed or locked in the iOS version. If the OS X version behaves the same way, then that's just how Safari works.
