Hi Tim,

Since upgrading to the latest build (18 Dec), I've had problems creating new projects.  Existing projects seem to be ok, but with new projects I've had these issues:

* Created a new project, saved the form and project, added a panel and couple of labels and edits.  Running the project produced a blank page, both in the internal browser and external browser.  This happened 3 times in a row.  Sorry, don't have a copy of this because I deleted the projects and started again.

* Created a project as above.  Get the following error when running: "Unable to get the value of the property 'indexof': object is null or undefined.  Uploaded project to binaries (ProblemProject2.zip).  It seems to be related to using a panel as a container.

I also noticed that all new forms are set to Visible = False by default.

Windows 7 64 Bit

This is now fixed - there was an issue with a correction I made to how
controls inject their parents into the tab order as the controls themselves
are injected into the tab order.  It would be nice if the browsers could
handle tab ordering in a decent way, but unfortunately they have a global
tab ordering (yes, you read that right) that doesn't respect containers in
terms of tab ordering, so EWB has to do all of the tab ordering/handling
manually.

I should be able to upload a new build by tomorrow so you can get back at
it.

This has been that way for a while.  There was a build (or maybe more than
one) that had a bug that had the Visible property set to True, by default,
for forms, but that wasn't correct.  Delphi initializes forms with
Visible=False.

Thanks for the report, and keep 'em coming.
