Using v1.1.7 on Windows 10.

With a plain table in a validated HTML file, the tab order isn't preserved.

<table>
    <tr>
        <td><a href="#">Link A</a></td>
        <td>Some text</td>
        <td><textarea name="Text A"></textarea></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td><a href="#">Link B</a></td>
        <td>Some text</td>
        <td><textarea name="Text B"></textarea></td>
    </tr>
</table>

Expected result: the tab order should be:

Link A
Text A
Link B
Text B

Actual result: the tab order is:

Link A
Link B
Text A
Text B

So I added tabindex to all of my links and fields.

<table>
    <tr>
        <td><a tabindex="1" href="#">Link A</a></td>
        <td>Some text</td>
        <td><textarea tabindex="2" name="Text A"></textarea></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td><a tabindex="3" href="#">Link B</a></td>
        <td>Some text</td>
        <td><textarea tabindex="4" name="Text B"></textarea></td>
    </tr>
</table>

No change in tab order
